This Centre aims to answer fundamental questions in astrophysics including the origin of matter and the periodic table of elements, and the origin of ionisation in the Universe. It intends to use Australian three-dimensional technology to transform our understanding of the Universe. It will unify world-leading Australian optical and radio surveys with theoretical simulations and new e-Science techniques for Peta-scale data sets. The Centre will also nurture young scientific leaders and make high-school students interested in STEM sciences through education and outreach programmes. It is expected the research will propel Australia to the forefront of astronomical research for the coming decade while capitalising on innovative instrumentation.

该中心旨在回答天体物理学的基本问题，包括物质的起源和元素周期表，以及宇宙电离的起源。它打算利用澳大利亚的三维技术来改变我们对宇宙的理解。它将把世界领先的澳大利亚光学和无线电调查与理论模拟和Peta规模数据集的新电子科学技术结合起来。该中心还将培养年轻的科学领导者，并通过教育和外联方案使高中生对STEM科学感兴趣。预计这项研究将推动澳大利亚在未来十年内走在天文研究的最前沿，同时利用创新仪器。
