Nearly 900 Australians have been recognised for their contributions to the community in this year's Queen's Birthday honours list.

The list recognises a diverse range of people — scientists, entertainers, lawyers, designers, community workers, performers — and a psephologist.

"To all recipients, I offer my deepest congratulations, admiration and respect for your contribution to our nation," Governor-General Sir Peter Cosgrove said.

Hollywood star Cate Blanchett and the man who brought Qantas back from the brink are among the most prominent of those recognised in the Queen's Birthday Honours this year.
