Australia to launch its own space programme

[f2wohf]

Na, I'm sure the world will celebrate if they announce they're taking all white people off planet

Rather commit suicide than going to jail island.

Or at least send me to my jail island where I can understand something when they speak. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil's_Island

Thanks, haven’t been out but needed a lot of rest recently. Still a long way to go though.

You're right.
Northwards.

Only AUS$50 Million

That's not going to get them far

I honestly think someone is trolling the Government here And got AUS$ 50 million for their efforts

Ausies to actually say arse not ass.

Came to post this

We know that and they know that.

The AUS$50 is just seed funding to get an agency started, not to actually run it, launch rockets or put schite into orbit. It's merely to start getting organisational structures in place.

Yeah rag the Aussies and when you're done have a good look at your own backyard (not you crackersa, talking about sa here) & tell us who's doing better. Let's revisit this topic 10-20yrs down the line and see what progress they've made compared to us pointing fingers and laughing.

Well, we did have a space program before them

Nope, Aussie beat SA by a long way. They had a space programme in the '50's and '60's which they shared with the poms (the poms paid for it). It was very successful and that program went on to become the ESA.

Do some searching on Woomera. There's some good doco's on Youtube.

it's merely an amusing riff on the upcoming space agency and not what it'll be actually called.

They hope to find space crocks and send a team-up of crocodile Dundee Steve Irwin's kid after them.
