Bob Leslie was the first Director of Tidbinbilla, and the senior Australian public servant directly responsible for the Tracking Stations and associated facilities for many years. He recounts how he took a team to JPL in the mid 60s to accept the equipment for Tidbinbilla, the initial missions at Tidbinbilla, and his subsequent years as Assistant Secretary, American Projects Branch, and his various other titles over the years, from the late 60s until the early 80s
