Southern Cross Cosmos Centre
The observatory is located in the Southern Cross Cosmos Centre, a purpose built facility opened in 2001, with a slide-off roof housing five telescopes available for public use on astronomical viewing nights.
The largest telescope is a Obsession telescope named "Brodie-Hall", donated to the observatory by Laurence and Jean Brodie-Hall.
The facility is located next-door to the Zadko telescope run by the University of Western Australia, which is actively involved in scientific research.
