Reflections on Parkes Open Day
The Parkes Observatory held Open Days to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moonwalk last month, with similar events also held at the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex (CDSCC) at Tidbinbilla, and at the Honeysuckle Creek tracking station site. Participants included the young and old, amateur astronomers, interested by-passers, locals, and those from far afield. Some perhaps had stars in their eyes, and as the image above shows, one had telescopes in her glasses! (Image credit: Kate Cranney)
