From the Film Australia Collection. Made by the Commonwealth Film Unit 1957. Directed by William Shepherd. Rocket research and testing is carried out by the Weapons Research Establishment at Salisbury and Woomera in South Australia. When this film was made in the late 1950s, the Australian Government's Weapons Research Establishment in South Australia used what was then cutting-edge technology for rocket research and testing. This film provides a fascinating insight into the work carried out at the sprawling Salisbury complex of offices, laboratories and workshops and at Woomera, home to both the world's longest rocket range and a purpose-built township in the middle of the desert.
