ANU Institute for Space | InSpace was delighted to host Space Command AU last week (Defence Space Commander Major General Greg Novak, Major Hannah Banks and Lieutenant Chris Maclean) and to show them ANU space capability sites including Heavy Ion Accelerators, National Space Test Facility (NSTF) and the Quantum Optical Ground Station. 

Kate Ferguson, Associate Director at InSpace said, “It was a pleasure to be able to introduce Space Command to our space facilities and demonstrate how robust the ACT space hub is especially at ANU.”

ANU InSpace is building the next generation of capabilities to provide impact and outcomes for The Australian National University's space research and the Australian space sector. The $200 million of ANU Space Infrastructure available consists of multiple facilities across the ANU Campus in Acton, Mt Stromlo, and also in NSW, all operated and run by a community of world class ANU experts. Our diverse and multidisciplinary space research and capabilities offer myriad opportunities for Australia to engage in sustainable and dynamic space activities for the benefit of earth.
