Jack Absalom's: Red Dirt And Rockets

This time Jack and the team pack their swags and head north into desert country. Beginning in the Gawler Ranges Jack heads north towards the old Woomera Rocket Range, stopping off to meet some of the local pastoralists and learning about Aboriginal water markers and how tribal Aborigines found their way across the vast dry country, going from one water hole to another.

Travelling further to the north Jack reaches the Woomera Rocket Range where British Scientists tested their rocket armoury post WWII.

We learn about treating snake bite, getting fresh water out of a slat lake and emergency welding before arriving at the tiny opal mining town of Andamooka.
