Mt Stromlo Observatory, Canberra AU was destroyed by a bush fire.
It had been situated for ~80 yrs in a State Forest.
The Observatory was Australia's premier research installation in
Astrophysics etc.
It was administered by the Australian National University.

The forest could not be made safe because of the *greenie scum* who oppose
anything constructive.
No burn offs etc.
