The ARC Centre of Excellence for All-sky Astrophysics (CAASTRO) will establish Australia as a world-leader in the emerging discipline of wide-field astronomy. CAASTRO will answer fundamental questions about the nature of the Universe, develop innovative ways of processing enormous data-sets, and enable a diverse set of opportunities for students and early career researchers. By bringing Australia's top astronomers together into a focused collaboration, CAASTRO will cement Australia's reputation as an international leader in astrophysical research, will build unique expertise in wide-field radio and optical astronomy and will position Australia to lead the science programmes planned for the Square Kilometre Array.

ARC全天空天体物理学卓越中心（CAASTRO）将使澳大利亚成为宽视场天文学新兴学科的世界领导者。CAASTRO将回答有关宇宙性质的基本问题，开发处理大量数据集的创新方法，并为学生和早期职业研究人员提供各种机会。通过将澳大利亚的顶级天文学家聚集在一起进行有重点的合作，CAASTRO将巩固澳大利亚作为天体物理研究国际领导者的声誉，将在宽场射电和光学天文学方面建立独特的专业知识，并将使澳大利亚能够领导平方公里阵列计划的科学方案。
