[BCT071]

Western Australia is clearly the better choice of location.

[RichardDrumm]

That is my choice of location as well. More stable politically and it has better beer! ;^)

[BCT071]

Geographically very stable as well.

Clear skies,dry climate and public support for the project all make Western Australia a perfect location.

No offense to South Africans but stability is not exactly what the African continent is famous for.

Better beer?...Of course!!!!

excellent insights for the future and the direction of one domain of astronomy.
