Radio telescopes are one of the dark arts of science. Not only do you have to deal with RF wizardry, the photons you’re detecting are so far out of the normal human experience that you really don’t ...
When astronomers talk about an optical telescope, they often mention the size of its mirror. That's because the larger your mirror, the sharper your view of the heavens can be. It's known as resolving ...
The wavelengths of radio light are so large that you can't capture a high-resolution image with a single dish. To capture an image as sharp as, say, the Hubble telescope, you'd need a radio dish tens ...

After decades of discussion, the far side of the moon --- the most radio quiet spot in the inner solar system --- is finally being taken seriously for a kilometers-wide, low- frequency radio array.
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration, with the participation of the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA), has for the first time received radio waves at 0.87 millimeters.
Researchers in Germany and Russia have obtained the first detection of interferometric signals between the Effelsberg 100-m telescope and the space-bound radio telescope satellite Spektr-R. The ...
NASA has selected a new mission to study how the Sun generates and releases giant space weather storms – known as solar particle storms – into planetary space. Not only will such information improve ...
What will eventually become one of the world’s most sensitive radio telescopes has taken its first true peak at the cosmos that it was built to observe. Still in its infancy, SKA-LOW will comprise the ...
A radio interferometer array operating at 20 GHz would be developed at Indian Institute of Technology, Indore (IIT-I) soon. The work on developing state-of-the-art interferometer, which is perhaps the ...
