Abstract
AbstractPawsey returned from his travels clearly determined to maintain the RPL’s leading position in “radio astronomy” internationally. His trip had shown him that no other group was quite so advanced as RPL—and had also underscored the reality that maintaining this leadership required the additional effort of keeping the work at RPL prominent in the awareness of groups of scientists at a significant distance. As with most forms of structural disadvantage, the costs of distance were visible to those who bore them (ie, the Australians) but not so to those who benefited (Cambridge).
