Paul Wild

scientist Australia

Dr. Paul Wild was a prominent Australian astronomer and former chairman of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). He is best known for his contributions to radio astronomy and his advocacy for high-speed rail in Australia, inspired by his experiences on train journeys and his vision for modernizing the country's rail infrastructure. Wild's passion for rail travel and his disappointment with the speed of trains in Australia in the 1980s led him to propose the idea of a high-speed rail network that could connect major cities along the east coast.
