Scientific paper

On October 16 the Anglo-Australian 150-inch telescope is being inaugurated at Siding Spring in New South Wales. Together with the recent announcement of plans for an infrared flux collector in Hawaii, the imminent retirement of the Director of the Royal Greenwich Observatory and of the Astronomer Royal for Scotland, and with the concept of a Northern Hemisphere Observatory very much alive we are clearly at the beginning of a new era in British astronomy. John Gribbin has been talking to Dr Alan Hunter and Professor F. G. Smith, of the RGO, and Dr V. C. Reddish, of the Royal Observatory Edinburgh, about future prospects in the light of these developments. Picture: dome of UK 48-inch Schmidt telescope at Siding Spring.
