Astronomy engages the public like no other science. This flagship project is Australian based, uses Australian technology and although international has a strong Australian flavour in scientific leadership and participation. The experiment will yield a massive leap forward in our understanding of our Milky Way Galaxy. Australia 'punches above its weight' in astronomy because of our innovation, ability to maximise limited resources and to cannily target projects with high return for the investment applied. The same rationale here is delivering excellent science. To secure this return into the second, most productive phase requires modest additional investment by Australia and our partners in the necessary project infrastructure.

天文学对公众的吸引力是其他科学无法比拟的。这个旗舰项目以澳大利亚为基地，使用澳大利亚的技术，虽然是国际性的，但在科学领导和参与方面具有强烈的澳大利亚风味。这项实验将使我们对银河系的理解向前迈进一大步。澳大利亚在天文学方面“出类拔萃”，因为我们的创新能力，能够最大限度地利用有限的资源，并精明地瞄准投资回报率高的项目。同样的道理也是提供优秀的科学。为了确保这一回报进入第二个最具生产力的阶段，澳大利亚和我们的合作伙伴需要在必要的项目基础设施方面进行适度的额外投资。
