UWA to lead $20 million national space domain awareness centre
Original: UWA to lead $20M National Centre for Space Domain Awareness
The University of Western Australia has been chosen to lead a new $20 million National Centre for Space Domain Awareness. The centre will work on tracking and understanding activity in orbit, a growing priority as satellite traffic and space debris increase. It positions Australia to build national capability in monitoring objects and risks in space, and the funding scale makes it one of the more significant recent investments in the country's space research sector.
Why now: A major new government-backed space research investment has just been announced, drawing attention to Australia's expanding role in orbital monitoring.
