This was not supposed to be a thread god dammit. However as a Swede I just said What the hell is Onsala Space Observatory........ 🙄
Chalmers in Onsala operates three radio telescopes for astronomical research.

"Chalmers builds new radio telescopes with Wallenberg money" Image
Onsala Space Observatory was founded in 1949 by Professor Olof Rydbeck. The Department of Space, Geo and Environmental Sciences at Chalmers University of Technology hosts the observatory, and the operation is run on behalf of the Swedish Research Council. Image
The father Oscar Rydbeck was head of (Wallenbergs) Skandinaviska banken and a central figure in Swedish banking, but also internationally recognized. Through his membership on the board of ab Kreuger & Toll, he became involved in the legal processes that followed.
Ivar Kreuger didn't kill himself. Pass it on.
Olof Rydbeck was a Swedish ambassador and radio manager. He was head of Sweden's Radio 1955–1970, Sweden's ambassador to the UN 1970–1977 and commissioner general for the UN.
Olof Rydbeck was also a board member of, among others, the Swedish Institute's council, STTF, the psychological defense preparedness board, and SRK's executive board.
Swedish Institute later called Ministry of Truth by some (from the book 1984)....

Ellemtel, Ericsson, Telia and The AXE telephone exchange

At the end of the 1960s, L.M. Ericsson and Televerket were both working on developing computer-controlled exchanges. But the work was taking longer than planned for both of them and costs soon raced past the budgets. Image
“The whole world was talking about the coming of electronics. There was almost panic at L.M. Ericsson. Nobody knew how far competitors had come and there was no competitive solution in sight.”

On several occasions Bjurel proposed the idea that he and his colleagues had of a joint development company owned by Televerket and L.M. Ericsson.

/Bertil Bjurel
