Foreword

Quintessential Cosmos is Australia's most up-to-date, concise and comprehensive reference site for everything related to space and the universe.
          Within the pages of this site is a wealth of information about our universe with links to vast resources in a wide selection of portals.
The extensive Space Reference Library is divided into four main sections: the Universe, Space Travel, International Space Station and the Future.
The portals include Games, News, Reference and Tools & Utilities databases.
          To ensure a high level of accuracy, every effort has been made to guarantee that all aspects of the content are reliable; consequently all references to unproven science fiction have been omitted with the exception of certain widely accepted hypotheses. However, it must be acknowledged that in the past numerous concepts long thought of as science fiction have actually been realised, this is evident in many aspects of modern life, notably in the practical implementation of robots or the use of artificial satellites.

A special thanks goes out to all contributors from whence the resources, suggestions, background material and images came to create this site.
Remember anything you can't find here either doesn't exist or can be found via the Reference Portal or the Space & the Universe Portal
