The Sydney Morning Herald began life as the weekly Sydney Herald. It cost 7d, had just four pages and only 750 copies were printed. The paper, named after Scotland’s Glasgow Herald, was founded by Englishmen Alfred Ward Stephens, Frederick Stokes and William McGarvie, who all worked for the Sydney Gazette.

The trio’s new paper was initially based in Redman’s Court, near George Street. Ten years later, John Fairfax (pictured left) began his family’s 149-year long control of the paper. The bankrupt Englishman had published the Leamington Spa Sketch Book before migrating to New South Wales in 1838.

NEPTUNE Canada – Powered by dotCMS

Oceans cover almost three quarters of Earth’s surface. They feed us, carry our ships and shape our weather. Within the oceans, biological, chemical, physical and geological processes are unfolding, which we are only beginning to understand.

NEPTUNE Canada offers a unique and exciting approach to ocean science. Traditionally, ocean scientists have relied on infrequent ship cruises or space-based satellites to carry out their research. But NEPTUNE Canada will change this. We’re building the world’s first regional-scale underwater ocean observatory that plugs directly into the Internet. People everywhere will be able to ‘surf the seafloor,’ and ocean scientists will be able to run deep-water experiments from labs and universities anywhere around the world.
