Statue out the front of the Planetarium of the Russian Scientist, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky who apparently is regarded as the founder of Cosmonautics. The statue was a gift to Queensland during Russia Week in Australia in 2007 to mark the 150th anniversary of Tsiolkovsky's birth in 1857
It's great to see such a different type of statue! Normally they are boring and staid! Brisbane looks very green :) Oh, and thanks for the follow Poppo! I love seeing your daily shots - you inspire me!
