More than 150 wildfires continue to sweep across Australia's state of New South Wales. Buildings at the country's biggest optical space observatory also suffered some damage. Cameras inside the watchtower showed large flames and thick smoke sweeping over it. It is too early to say if its 15 major telescopes have been damaged.
