Have been doing a bit of a road trip around the state of NSW, Australia, over this last week.
Visited the Parkes 36m radio telescope. Then on to Coonabarabran and the home of the Siding
Springs Observatory complex.
One of the several scopes here is the 3.9m AAT (Anglo-Australian Telescope)The largest optical
scope in Australia
1) Dome and Moon -- moon setting
2) view of scope from public observation room
3) aerial view from 30m above visitor carpark (quad-copter drone)
4) scope info
cheers
