U.S. Consulate Perth

SPACE TECH ON WHEELS 🚙
Consul General Colleen Altstock visited ICRAR and the International Space Centre at The University of Western Australia recently to learn how WA researchers are turning space research into new communications technologies. This includes a mobile communications station known as TeraNet-3 built into an iconic American vehicle - a Jeep! It can be rapidly deployed to sites that need ultra-fast space communications, such as areas impacted by natural disasters.

One week on, a few more memorable moments from our celebrations for America’s 250th birthday.
