International Coffee Day
The 1st of October is International Coffee Day, and as coffee is the favoured beverage of many astronomers during their observations (or more generally), we commemorate this occasion with a photo from the opening of the Dish Cafe at the Parkes Observatory in April 2003, showing former Director of the Australia Telescope National Facility, Ron Ekers, helping make one of the cafe's first cups of coffee.
