South Australia has put forward the former Royal Adelaide Hospital site as the best location for the new Australian space agency, in a meeting between Premier Steven Marshall and the agency’s director general Megan Clark.
South Australia is home to several space-related tech companies, especially those with a focus on satellite technology.
The federal government has committed $41 million to the project, including $15 million to kickstart the project, with a decision on the location expected by the end of the year.
