Hi all.
For your attention.
The work and legacy of Ken Beames has been recognised by the NSW Govt by adding his Linden Observatory site to the State Heritage Register. The Linden Observatory is in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney.
The heritage listing also protects 40 acres of surrounding bushland so that man-made lights don't interfere with night-sky observations.
