Australia 1992 : INTERNATIONAL SPACE YEAR 1992 FDC


INTERNATIONAL SPACE YEAR 1992 

The stamps commemorating the International Space Year 1992 feature celestial phenomena of the southern sky: the Helix Nebula, the Pleiades and Spiral Galaxy NGC 2997. The miniature sheet shows a graphic rendition of ERS-1, the newest Earth-observation satellite to carry Australian technology. Australia was the third nation to launch its own satellite, Wresat, which features in the cover illustration.
