Google links half-dressed men in a hotel room with Anglo-Australian Telescope

Things are looking very casual at the Australian Astronomical Telescope
(AAT), previously known as the Anglo-Australian Telescope.

If one enters the search term "Anglo-Australian Telescope" into
Google, in the right-hand column the search engine giant conveniently
provides us with a brief description of the telescope, a Google map to
show us where it is and a cover picture of two bare-chested guys
in shorts and hotel dressing gowns.

See image below.

Hi David,

The address is correct. The AAO offices are in Delhi Rd, North Ryde here in
Sydney, in the industrial estate that use to be the CSIRO campus
up from the Lane Cover River Park.
