Australian Square Kilometre Array Coordination Committee

The Australian SKA Coordination Committee (ASCC) provides coordination, support and advice on the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project in Australia. It has been established to: a. Support Australia’s involvement in the SKA radio telescope project and the delivery of its hosting obligations to the SKA Observatory. b. Coordinate efforts to return benefits to Australia and local communities from participation in this global mega-science project. c. Provide strategic advice to the Australian and Western Australian Governments on the SKA project. This includes advice on project design, implementation and related risk issues during pre-construction, construction issues and transition to the operational phase of the telescope.
