The Mt Stromlo Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) facility is part of a worldwide network of approximately 42 SLR stations with only six located in the southern hemisphere. The Mt Stromlo facility is one of two SLR units managed by Geoscience
The Mt Stromlo facility is newly built after being destroyed in the January 2003 bush fires that swept across two thirds of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The official opening was on 1 April 2004, and after further testing and validating, became operational on 1 December 2004.
Mt Stromlo photo gallery is a selection of the facility rebuilding images after the 2003 fires.
