Albany Museum

Visited the museum in Albany this morning. Was excellent.
My favourite was a 3D movie 'Beyond the Milk Way. You experience one of the greatest international scientific endeavours in history as you step onto Australia’s future site of the incredible Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescopes in an immersive 360-degree virtual reality cinema experience.

Narrated by physicist Professor Brian Cox, travel to the radio-quiet Western Australian outback to explore where one of the world’s largest radio telescopes will be capturing the corners of the universe and breaking new ground in astronomical research.'

We also boarded the replica of the Brig Amity. Was fascinating to explore the ship and listen to the story of Amity's perilous 6 week journey from Sydney to King George Sound to establish the first European settlement on the west coast of Australia.Read more
