Day self guided tour at Siding Spring Observatory

AAT Viewing Gallery

In 1974 The Anglo-Australian Telescope was opened by HRH Prince Charles as Australia’s National Astronomical Facility. From first light to this day, the largest optical telescope in Australia has been a world-leading facility discovering exoplanets, supernovae and galaxies. The AAT Viewing Gallery can be accessed from the walking path from the visitor centre. Follow the path up to the AAT and from there take the lift to the 4th Floor.
