MOST interesting

We made the ANZAC holiday into a long weekend and went camping near Braidwood. Heading home on Sunday we happened to pass what used to be called the Molonglo Cross but is now called the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST). It is now a test bed for technology for the SKA. I've known about this scope for decades but had never seen it, so I had to grab some piccies. More info here
