The Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) was established in 1953 as a statutory authority in Australia. Its primary purpose was to develop and regulate the use of atomic energy for peaceful purposes, including research, nuclear power generation, and the development of nuclear technology. The AAEC played a significant role in Australia's early nuclear research initiatives, including the establishment of the Lucas Heights Research Complex near Sydney, which has been a key site for nuclear research and the production of medical isotopes.
