Gladstone
Moving on from Rockhampton we are following the coastline down to Brisbane. Gladstone is an industrial town. It is the world's fourth largest coal exporting terminal. There is also an aluminium smelter and this power station.
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.
Reminds me of Mount Isa.
