Ok, if we're playing the fortune telling game:
Aust Space Agency:
- A half dozen or so adjunct appointments of existing University lecturers in Astro related fields. For a small fee, their work/expertise is collated under this new organsiation.
- A token permanent expert flown in from overseas. This could be the showpony who provides the celebrity factor. They work from home, when not traveling. We see him/her on Catalyst (or whatever ABC science show) every week.
- A manager on 12 month contract, in a serviced Govt office (probably sharing a floor with Centrelink in Canberra).
- Some sort of assistant on a shared-wage scheme/scholarship with another Govt training/skills department.
The last 3 individuals listed is easy to calculate. The Adjuncts' cost is where the black hole will be found.

Objectively, the best answer in this thread. Definately better than my dribble.
