Cash in space

Libs are star-struck in Adelaide

The South Australian Liberal Party government faces the electorate on March 19,as will their national colleagues some-time in the next couple of months. Which are undoubtedly incidental to the prime minister’s announcement of $32m for the Adelaide-based Australian Space Agency, for “transitioning space technology from the laboratory to space.”

Mr Morrison also instructs the agency, “to embark on a mission to put an Australian astronaut back into space,” which will “drive jobs and technology investment.”

Managing that might be tight before we vote.
