Abstract

The Logo of the Australia Telescope National Facility (ATNF) depicts a linear array of six antennas in the Southern Hemisphere. Precision measurement of this image implies that the Compact Array is located at latitude 37° south and azimuth 176°; this corresponds (surprisingly) to an approximately north-south array. Furthermore, the ATNF Logo was apparently prepared at LST 04h 00m.
