Hi all,

I'm new to Ice in Space. I live in the Lake Macquarie area and I am a politics/law student. When it comes to astronomy I'm a beginner but I would love to become more involved.

If I ever get elected to public office in this country—at any level of government—one of my policy areas will definitely be dedicated to reviving interest in astronomy within the community and among young people like myself. I think that astronomy is capable of creating solidarity among human beings because it is something that transcends age, culture, religion, gender, etc. and it is something that everybody should be able to explore and enjoy.
