Macarthur Astronomical Society are on the front page as well as pages 3 & 4 of the Macarthur Advertiser newspaper today, with a public announcement released to finally outline our plan to build an astronomical observatory complex within the old North Cliff Mine site inside the brand new Dharawal National Park south of Sydney. A very big thanks must go to Jeff McGill, the Editor, for his fantastic editorial. He recognises the potential for this project, and the way it will expose the local community to both the wonders of what we see above us as well as its potential to excite up and coming young scientists to follow this path for the future benefit of all.
