Dear fellow ASA members
This is a reminder that the History of Australian Astronomy Chapter's (HAAC's) inaugural annual online workshop will be held online on Wednesday 19 November 2025, 2:00 - 5:15pm AEDT (UT+10). All ASA members are invited to participate. Please register at: https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/DY2MCjZ1N7iG6nN6AUWfRCmN0A1?domain=events.humanitix.com. Registration is free.
There are seven short presentations showing the breadth of the history of Australian astronomy. Speakers include Fred Watson and Duane Hamacher. Among topics covered are astronomers who have been innovators, the continuing connection Indigenous Peoples have to the night sky, changes in technologies, people who have impacted our understanding of the cosmos and women who conducted scientific work behind the scenes.
