Hundreds of kilometres off the western coast of Panama, Dan Turner floats alone in the open sea. In his handmade sailboat the Immortal Game, the skipper trims the sail and checks for nearby boats before settling in for a 40-minute sleep, after which he'll rise and make further checks, repeating the process until dawn. He's a fair way from Port Lincoln in South Australia, where the 41-year-old first learnt to sail.

Security cameras have been installed at Koonalda Cave in South Australia's far west to help protect the nationally significant heritage site. The move is in response to a 2022 incident when trespassers broke into and vandalised the Nullarbor cave, which contains well-preserved 20,000-year-old finger art. A management plan has also been put in place, funded by a $400,000 heritage grant from the federal government in March 2023.
