We had launch facilities in the 60-70's but our Govt saw no future in space technology - no visionaries in Govt and there are still none - they want to buy nuclear subs but hell what's the point in that if we don't have nuclear missiles - Australia's decision to forgo a nuclear deterrent reflects a combination of international obligations, strategic priorities, and supposedly public opinion that favours non-proliferation and conventional military capabilities, but what good is that when you have someone like Trump in power who treats friends like enemies. We as a nation should be way ahead of numerous other poorer less stable countries but we are not.
