[1] The Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions manages the bushland surrounding the Discovery Centre and the observatory.

In 2005, Emeritus Professor John de Laeter was awarded the Eureka Prize for "promoting [the] understanding of science" in recognition of his creation of the Gravity Discovery Centre.

They are invited to notice how it slows down as it passes over the metal plates, which are made of copper or aluminium: both good electrical conductors.

Bernoulli's principle explains that an increase in the speed of air produces a decrease in static pressure.

In this interactive display, when the ball moves to the side it is pushed back toward the centre of the air flow.

This niobium bar gravitational wave detector, and associated superconducting electromechanical sensors, were developed by Professor David Blair of UWA.

This worldwide experiment set limits to the strength of gravitational waves and paved the way for the next generation of detectors.

[3] Note: Gravitational waves are ripples in the curvature of spacetime caused by huge cosmic events like the Big Bang and the collision of black holes.

Mathematician Roger Penrose found a particular tiling in which the gaps may be filled with three other shapes: a star, a boat, and a diamond.

Alongside the track, model planets and their moons are located at the correct scaled distances from the Sun.

Local bushland surrounding the centre is inhabited by some rare and endangered species of plants and animals.

The bright orange-yellow Morrison shrubs (Verticordia nitens) begin to bloom in November, with the display lasting through to mid-January.
