==History==
The town is named after James Cosmo Newberry〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Cosmo Newberry )〕 who was an industrial chemist noted for his work on improving the chlorination method of gold extraction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Australian Dictionary of BiographyCosmo Newberry )〕
The area was originally leased by two returned soldiers as a cattle station then as a penal colony for a short time then later became a government ration depot. The town was first settled in 1920.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ExplorOz Cosmo Newberry )〕 By 1953 the Uniting Church set up a mission but eventually, in 1976, gave the land back to the Aboriginal people living in the area at that time. The town operated for 11 years and was then abandoned for 4 years. In 1989 four families moved back into the town who were quickly followed by others. The town now has a health clinic, school, a hall, windmills, communication centre, fuel station and shop.
The town is one of the stops, operating a roadhouse along the Great Central Road that tracks through the Great Victoria Desert and eventually connects with the Gunbarrel Highway.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRMA Great Central Road )〕
