View of the Anglo-Australian Telescope at sunrise
Anglo-Australian Telescope. View of the dome of the Anglo-Australian Telescope (aT) at sunrise. This 3.9m optical telescope is part of the Anglo- Australian Observatory on the summit of the 1200m high Siding Spring mountain in New South Wales, Australia. Since completion in 1974 the aT has enabled observation of many objects and regions only visible from the Southern Hemisphere, for example the centre of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The Anglo-Australian Observatory also operates the UK Schmidt Telescope. The Observatory is funded and run jointly by the United Kingdom and Australia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the awe-inspiring view of the Anglo-Australian Telescope at sunrise. Perched atop the majestic Siding Spring mountain in New South Wales, Australia, this 3.9m optical telescope is a testament to human curiosity and scientific exploration. Since its completion in 1974, the Anglo-Australian Telescope (aT) has played a pivotal role in unlocking the mysteries of our universe. From its vantage point on the summit of a 1200m high mountain, it offers unparalleled views of celestial objects and regions that are only visible from the Southern Hemisphere. One such remarkable achievement is its ability to observe and study the center of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The aT has provided scientists with invaluable insights into this cosmic wonderland, unraveling secrets about its structure and composition. Operated by both United Kingdom and Australian astronomers, the Anglo-Australian Observatory also oversees another remarkable instrument - the UK Schmidt Telescope. Together, these telescopes form an international collaboration dedicated to advancing our understanding of astrophysics and astronomy. As we gaze upon this image bathed in golden hues of sunrise, we are reminded not only of humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge but also our collective efforts to explore beyond what meets the eye. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that there is still so much left to discover within our vast cosmos.
