The
Australia Telescope Steering Committee
(ATSC) provides advice to the ATNF Director on the scientific and technical operations of the ATNF.
Committee members are appointed by the CSIRO Board.
The ATSC includes four Australian astronomers, three overseas experts and two representatives from
the broader community. In addition, there are two ex-officio members.
The current ATSC will convene this week at the Parkes Observatory.
The picture above, from the
CSIRO Radio Astronomy Image Archive
shows members of the ATSC together with ATNF staff during a visit to Parkes in 1993.
