Predicting the unpredictable: Investing in science and technology for the next decade
From discovering Earth-like planets to revolutionising medical imaging for earlier diagnostics – we are aiming for high-impact outcomes at COMBS. A key step in achieving this is bridging the gap between researchers and end-users to align our research with society’s biggest future challenges.
Towards an Australian GPS solution: Precise timekeeping and measurement in a thumbnail-sized piece of glass
What would happen if the USA-based GPS were switched off? At COMBS, we’re developing smaller, tougher atomic clocks for compact, cost-effective Australian satellites.
