Capturing the Cosmos
Capturing the Cosmos highlights work being carried out by Australian astronomers, especially all-sky astronomy by the SkyMapper telescope in New South Wales and the Murchison Wide-field Array in Western Australia, which have been designed to survey large sections of the sky. Each show will include a live talk on ‘what’s in the sky tonight?’, which will be fun for all the family.
