Margaret Throsby interviewed Dr Will Saunders, astronomer from Siding Springs, on her morning ABC-FM program on Thursday, May 19. Here is the URL:

He talks about cosmology, the extent of the universe, Stephen Hawkings, adaptive optics, 'seeing' in Australia compared to Hawaii and Chile, setting up an observatory in Antarctica, Hubble... and everything! Quite unknown to me is the fact that he was also one of the two men arrested and charged for painting the notorious NO WAR sign on the Opera House!
A truly wonderful interview! Do yourselves a favour!
