The History of Australian Astronomy Chapter (HAAC) brings together astronomers, historians, curators, educators and specialists in this field to collaborate and share knowledge.
We note that history can involve serious and detailed archival research to bring the past to light. However, most ASA members, especially more senior ones, have some historical information to share. This could be the history of their institution, people that they had worked with, their own career path or changes in techniques in their research field.
HAAC has members in all states and territories of Australia and we are collecting information about places, people and events relevant to the history of astronomy.
We collaborate with other like-minded organisations to share knowledge and resources.
This website is a resource for anyone interested in the history of Australian astronomy and it will develop over time.
