DarkSky International, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and protecting the night sky, has identified some of the best spots for witnessing the wonders of the cosmos across the island country. New Zealand is home to 10 Dark Sky locations, including the country's first Dark Sky Community, Naseby.

Nickelodeon, Nick Jr., Comedy Central and Cartoon Network will be removed and replaced in NZ with new channels.

Known for its clear skies and brilliant stars, New Zealand is on track to become the world’s first "dark sky nation".

Spread out along the road between Christchurch and Queenstown, lodge hotels, many in remote spots, offer luxury with a sense of place.

The six-match white-ball series will conclude with the third ODI between New Zealand (NZ) and England (ENG) at the Sky Stadium in Wellington on Saturday, November 1. The Kiwis have already won the three-match series after winning the first two 50-over matches.
