Baskerville Raceway

Baskerville Raceway is a 2.010 km (1.249 mi) permanent motor racing circuit located at 473 Baskerville Rd, Old Beach - a northern suburb of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. Founded in 1954, the Hobart Sporting Car Club built the circuit in a natural amphitheatre on land provided by Calvin Morrisby (after whom turn 7 is named). The circuit was officially opened on 9 February 1958 by then Tasmanian Premier Robert Cosgrove with 20,000 spectators in attendance, and has been operating continuously ever since. Baskerville is the second-oldest continuously operating motor racing venue in Australia, with only Mount Panorama (which opened in 1938) being older. History Previously, Baskerville had hosted the Winfield 25's Touring Car Challenge, Australian Sports Car Championship, Australian Formula 2 Championship, Australian Road Racing Championships (motorcycles), Australian Superbike Championships and other races. Baskerville was the location for the 2006 and 2019 Australian Improved Production Nationals and for the 2009 Formula Vee Nationals, with the latter won by Daniel Reynolds in a Sabre 01. Baskerville Raceway hosted the inaugural Tasmanian Historic Motorcycle Championships from 25 to 27 November 2011. In recent years Baskerville Raceway has hosted the Baskerville Historics, the largest event at Baskerville Raceway. The event includes both cars and bikes over a three-day event, and has brought the likes of former V8 Supercars driver Glen Seton and current co-owner of V8 Supercar team Prodrive racing Australia, Rusty French. In 2012 the owning club, Hobart Sporting Car Club, launched the Baskerville Foundation, a fundraising initiative to bring the circuit to a more modern standard with the ultimate goal of a full resurface of the track. In 2015 the circuit gained a naming rights sponsor in Pepsi Max, with the circuit changing its name to Pepsi Max Baskerville Raceway The circuit now holds several events including the Tasmanian Circuit Racing Championship, the Baskerville Historics, the Baskerville 2-Hour Motorcycle Race and several smaller events. The Circuit also hosts several non-Motorsport events such as the Raw Challenge. In January 2021, the circuit also hosted non-championship round for the Touring Car Masters, TCR Australia Touring Car Series, and Trans-Am Australia Series after their first round in Symmons Plains Raceway. Motorcycle Racing and Track Days Motorcycle racing and public ride days are currently run by the Sports Riders Club of Tasmania (SRCT), one of only two club-run ride days in Australia.

Bastyan Dam

The Bastyan Dam is a concrete-faced rock-fill embankment dam across the Pieman River, located near Tullah, in the West Coast region of Tasmania, Australia. Completed in 1983, the resultant reservoir, Lake Rosebery, was established for the purpose of generation of hydroelectricity via the adjacent Bastyan Power Station, a conventional hydroelectric power station. The dam, its reservoir, and the power station are owned and operated by Hydro Tasmania. Dam and reservoir overview The concrete-face rockfill dam wall is 75 metres (246 ft) high and 510 metres (1,670 ft) long. When full, Lake Rosebery has capacity of 123.52 gigalitres (100,140 acre⋅ft) and covers 744 hectares (1,840 acres), drawn from a catchment area of 1,397 square kilometres (539 sq mi). The uncontrolled spillway has a flow capacity of 2,806 cubic metres per second (99,100 cu ft/s). Located adjacent to the rock-fill embankment dam is the off-stream Bastyan Levee, an earth-filled saddle embankment that is 14 metres (46 ft) high and 55 metres (180 ft) long. The levee also impounds Lake Rosebery. Reservoir Lake Rosebery is fed by both the Murchison and Mackintosh rivers and their confluence formed the Pieman River, submerged below the lake's surface following the damming in 1983. At the time of the dam's construction, the Emu Bay and the Wee Georgie Wood railway lines were diverted to run close to the reservoir's shore. In January 2025, 4,000 to 5,000 litres (880 to 1,100 imp gal; 1,100 to 1,300 US gal) of oil entered the reservoir after a tank on private property leaked in heavy rain. Hydroelectric power station Part of the Pieman River Power Development scheme that comprises four hydroelectric power stations, the Bastyan Power Station is the third station in the scheme. The power station is located aboveground at the foot of the dam wall. Water from the lake is fed to the power station near the centre of the dam wall by a 150-metre (490 ft) single penstock tunnel. The power station was commissioned in 1983 by the Hydro Electric Corporation (TAS) and the station has one Fuji Francis-type turbine, with a generating capacity of 81 megawatts (109,000 hp) of electricity. The station output, estimated to be 405 gigawatt-hours (1,460 TJ) annually, is fed to TasNetworks' transmission grid via a 13.8 kV/220 kV Fuji generator transformer to the outdoor switchyard. The water discharged from the Bastyan Power Station is impounded by the Reece Dam into Lake Pieman for use in the Reece Power Station.

Bathers Beach, Fremantle

Bathers Beach, also known as Whalers Beach, is a section of coastline that has a written history since the European settlement of what is now called Fremantle, Western Australia. In the 1890s it was bounded to the south by the Long and Short jetties. In the 1930s and 1940s it was called City Beach. The water offshore has also been called Bathers Bay. It is the shore below the Round House and is located just south of Arthur Head, at the entrance to Fremantle Harbour with the South Mole starting at its northern side. History The Bathers Beach precinct is traditionally known as Manjaree by the Whadjuk Noongar people, serving as an important meeting place and trading site. On 4 September 1829 Marquis of Anglesea dragged her anchors and was wrecked on Bathers Beach during a gale. A rocky promontory, which defined the southern end of the beach (now hidden beneath reclaimed land) and from which the Fremantle Long Jetty extended, was subsequently named Anglesea Point. Daniel Scott, who was the local harbour master, businessman and chair of the town council, made substantial investment in the Fremantle Whaling Company in 1837. An impressive investment was made when the company created a 57-metre-long (187 ft) tunnel that linked the beach to High Street, allowing easy access for transporting heavy equipment and products. The tunnel was built underneath the substantial Round House without damage. It was dug in five months and completed in January 1838. This rapid progress was possible because prisoners from the Round House were used, the rock was capable of being mined with a pick axe, and the work was overseen by Henry Willey Reveley. Today the tunnel is only 45 metres (148 ft) long as the cliffs were cut back some time after 1880. There were two local whaling companies started in 1836, but the Fremantle Whaling Company was based here. This company, which included investors in Liverpool, had mixed fortunes as the market collapsed in 1840. However the company did build a whaling station at Bathers Beach. The station included the tunnel and a number of buildings and a jetty where whales could be processed. Scott rented this station in the 1840s and he also operated a number of whaling ships including Napoleon and Merope. The whaling business does not appear to have been driven hard and Scott sold up his whaling boats and equipment in 1850. The Fremantle Whaling Company also ceased to operate that year. (Scott's new task was accommodating convicts that year.) Due to the range of activities since the 1820s, including whaling, the area adjacent to the beach has attracted archaeological interest.

Batwing Spaceshot

The Batwing Spaceshot is a thrill ride located at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast, Australia. It opened on 20 December 2006. The ride is an S&S Space Shot, a pneumatic powered ride which shoots riders up and then back down. The rise reaches a height of 61 metres (200 ft) and riders experience a force of up to 4 Gs while travelling at a speed of 64 kilometres per hour (40 mph). It carries 360 passengers per hour, and lasts for 50 seconds. The ride opened almost one year after the opening of the Superman Escape roller coaster, which opened on 26 December 2005. The logo's design based on the bat-signal in the film Batman Begins. However, the ride has no other similarity to that film. History First signs of construction were seen in the middle of 2006 when the queue for the former Looney Tunes Musical Revue show was demolished. This was followed by the excavation of ground in the area. In July 2006, it was confirmed that the ride would be a S&S Power Space Shot. The ride was later announced to be a Batman themed space shot tower called Batwing Spaceshot. On 20 December 2006, the ride opened to the public. The ride was installed by Ride Entertainment Group.

Baudissin-Gletscher

Der Baudissin-Gletscher ist ein 2,5 km breiter Gletscher auf der Insel Heard. Er fließt 1,5 km westlich des Challenger-Gletschers in den westlichen Abschnitt der Corinthian Bay. Entdeckt wurde er offenbar 1874 bei der Erkundung der Nordküste der Heard-Insel während der britischen Challenger-Expedition (1872–1876), doch erst der deutsche Polarforscher Erich von Drygalski erfasste ihn während der Gauß-Expedition (1901–1903) als einen einzigen großen Gletscher, der sich in die Corinthian Bay ergießt. Drygalski benannte ihn nach Friedrich Graf von Baudissin (1852–1921), einem Sponsor der Forschungsreise. Teilnehmer der Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions entdeckten 1948, dass mehrere Gletscher in die Bucht einmünden. Das Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) empfahl 1954, Drygalskis Benennung für den westlichsten und größten dieser Gletscher anzuwenden.

Baudissin Glacier

Baudissin Glacier (53°2′S 73°26′E) is a tidewater glacier on the north side of Heard Island. in the southern Indian Ocean. Located 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) west of Challenger Glacier, Baudissin Glacier is 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km) wide and flows into the western part of Corinthian Bay. The terminus of Baudissin Glacier is located at the western side of Corinthian Bay, at Sealers Cove. To the east of Baudissin Glacier is Challenger Glacier, whose terminus is located at the eastern side of Corinthian Bay, close west to Saddle Point. To the south of Baudissin Glacier is Schmidt Glacier, and to the northwest is Atlas Cove. Kildalkey Head is west of Schmidt Glacier. To the south of Schmidt Glacier is Vahsel Glacier, whose terminus is at South West Bay, between Erratic Point and Cape Gazert. Immediately south of Vahsel Glacier is Allison Glacier. Click here to see a map of Baudissin Glacier and the northwestern coast of Heard Island. Discovery and naming Baudissin Glacier appears to have been first noted by a sketch in the narrative accompanying the scientific reports of the expedition of HMS Challenger in 1874 along the north side of the island. The German Antarctic Expedition under Erich von Drygalski, 1901–03, portrayed a single large glacier flowing into Corinthian Bay and named it after Admiral Count Friedrich Baudissin, a sponsor of the expedition. In 1948 the ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) determined that more than one glacier discharges into Corinthian Bay. Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) recommended in 1954 that Baudissin Glacier be adopted for the westernmost and largest of these glaciers. References Further reading U. Radok & D.
