Global Outer Space Guide: Australia
Australia’s space industry is poised to undergo a renaissance, both reprising its role as an able assistant to other nations’ space enterprises and developing a rapidly expanding industry in its own right. Australia’s first forays into the space sector came as a “supporting player” to the United States’ Cold War era space race programs. Australia provided support and facilities that played a key role in advancing satellite launches, observation and communications throughout the 1960s and 1970s, including for the Moon landings of Apollo 11 in 1969.
