Dear ASA,



This year marks the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Commonwealth Solar Observatory at Mount Stromlo, now the site of Mount Stromlo Observatory and the ANU Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics. Mount Stromlo has an incredible legacy of discovery and has been central to many aspects of Australian astronomical research. To celebrate this milestone, I am delighted to announce that the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics will be hosting a 1-day symposium on the 18th September highlighting the contributions of scientists at Mount Stromlo. All members of the Australian astronomy community, and especially Mount Stromlo alumni, are invited to join us for this event.



This year the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics students have decided to hold the annual Mount Stromlo Student Seminars adjacent to the Symposium, on September 19th and 20th, providing an opportunity for PhD students from all institutions to also attend the symposium.



Registration will be opened in the coming weeks and will be free for both the 100th anniversary symposium and the Stromlo Student Seminars.



Please mark the 18th September your calendars, and I look forward to seeing you in Canberra.



-Stuart
