Ropeway
Cement is still big business in Kandos and one of the quirky outcomes is the aerial ropeway that travels 5 kms across the countryside and above the town, carrying limestone from quarry to the cement works. Buckets still glide overhead as they have been doing for near on 100 years.
In the morning we went out to see the radio telescope 20 or so kms out of town. On another wayfaring trip we visited the radio telescope at Parkes but this one is an array of dishes on a long track that can act like one big dish.
How cool!
