«While most astrophysicists believe black holes exists, nobody has actually ever seen one», says Heino Falcke, Professor
in radio astronomy at Radboud University in Nijmegen and ASTRON, The Netherlands.
Marking an important new
milestone in radio astronomy history, scientists at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Socorro, New Mexico, have made the first images using a radio telescope antenna in space.

It was among the brightest observations
ever in radio astronomy, originating from billions of light - years away, and it lasted just a few milliseconds.
«This cooperative program — the North American
Partnership in Radio Astronomy — involves the key projects that will dominate radio astronomy world - wide,» said Paul Vanden Bout, director of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).
Dr Whyborn obtained a Ph.D.
in Radio Astronomy Instrumentation at the Chalmers University of Technology and his technical interests are in the areas of front - end design, system engineering and testing.
It builds on a long tradition of cooperative
efforts in radio astronomy, and will ensure that we continue that tradition into the new millennium,» Vanden Bout said.
More than 80 participants attended the symposium, including researchers and graduate students who are
engaged in the radio astronomy research in Japan, and had active discussions on the current status and future perspectives of the Japanese radio astronomy.
Many future
leaders in radio astronomy started to form their international carrier in the informal and supportive environment of a YERAC.
50 years ago Émile - Jacques Blum, Peter Mezger and Harry van der Laan had a vision of a meeting where young
Europeans in radio astronomy could meet each other and exchange their experiences.
Thai Very Long Baseline Interferometer Network Collaborative Workshop — TVN 2016 assembles 55 experts
specialized in Radio Astronomy across the globe in Krabi, Thailand during 5 -9 September this year to galvanize advised information in Radio Astronomical research and technology, aiming to establish a National Network for Radio Astronomy and Geodesy (NNRAG), and ultimately through «Thai VLBI Network» or TVN, with the first station located in Northern Thailand.
Scientists and engineers at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) have made a giant leap toward the future of radio astronomy by successfully utilizing the Very Large Array (VLA) radio telescope in conjunction with an antenna of the continent - wide Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) using the longest fiber - optic data link ever
demonstrated in radio astronomy.
Humidity is a real
problem in radio astronomy, because water molecules distort the radio waves passing through them and also give off their own radio waves that pollute our data in certain frequencies.
This extreme - precision antenna is used exclusively for
research in radio astronomy, both as a stand - alone instrument as well as for Very Long Baseline -LSB-...]
Without a second telescope's observation, it meant FRBs could still be nothing but human interference or a local atmospheric phenomenon rather than a new
discovery in radio astronomy.
This extreme - precision antenna is used exclusively for research
in radio astronomy, both as a stand - alone instrument as well as for Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) experiments.
In radio astronomy, the two telescopes observe the same radio source for hours at a time, and their data is written to tape or hard drive.
In Radio Astronomy: Observing the Invisible Universe, Dr. Lockman takes you on an exciting virtual tour of radio telescopes.
Both parties admit that the future collaborations through Newton Fund are essential to the expansion of NARIT's territories
in radio astronomy as the UK is one of the leading nations as top players in radio astronomy in the past decades.
