Melbourne Planetarium Presentations at IPS2014

During the IPS2014 conference all three attendees from Museum Victoria presented papers.

Tanya Hill presented – GAMA: A new astronomical dataset exploring cosmology and galaxy evolutions.  This paper was very well received as Tanya demonstrated how planetariums can now work directly with astronomers to bring their datasets into the dome.  Following her paper, Tanya was interveiwed by a local Chinese television station.
