of our Milky Way Galaxy, the design and fabrication of astronomical instrumentation, and much more. Many projects are offered through Australian Astronomical Optics, which has a major node (AAO Macquarie) on campus, or offered jointly with CSIRO Astronomy
and Space Science (CASS), who operate Australia’s national radio astronomical observatories.<br class="">
