Telescope: Location

DREAMS will be located at Siding Spring Observatory, Australia in the UNSW APT Building.

Siding Spring Observatory (SSO), on the edge of the Warrumbungle National Park near Coonabarabran, NSW, is Australia’s premier optical and infrared astronomical observatory.

The Australian National University’s Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics (RSAA) operates its research telescopes, and hosts those of other institutions at this spectacular location next to the picturesque Warrumbungle National Park.

The UNSW APT Building was previously home to a wide-field CCD imaging telescope, the Automated Patrol Telescope, operated by the University of New South Wales.
