Dose Anyone Know of an Observatory near Cowra NSW

Hi Guys ,

We are currently traveling through NSW and are camped up near Cowra.

Yesterday we went fro a drive toward Wynangala Dam, about 40 kilometers from Cowra and can a cross an observatory set uo along the way.

I stopped to investigate and being daylight of coarse nothing was going on.
Apparently according to the sign out the front this Observatory is open each night from 7pm to late weather permitting.

It houses a 500mm, 400mm, 300mm, and a couple of 200mm Reflectors, for public use.

Just wondering if anyone knows of this place and who might own it.

Thanks.

Leon
