He adds that» In addition the images obtained by radio - interferometry show, on scales of one parsec (some three light years) that the jet appears to be helical, and contains many vórtices.

Currently, the best measurements of those variables come from a system called very - long - baseline interferometry (VLBI), which uses radio dishes spaced across Earth to stare at quasars — brilliant beacons in the distant universe that occasionally flicker.

Not long ago I came across a piece in the Scientific American archives from the earliest days of very - long baseline radio interferometry, the technique employed by the Event Horizon Telescope.

In particular, VLBI (very long baseline interferometry) uses a global network of radio telescopes spread across different continents to form a virtual Earth - sized telescope.

These networks of radio telescopes use sophisticated computer and communication technology called very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) to function as single continent spanning telescopes - the greatest eyes - on - the - sky ever created.

This technique, first introduced by British radioastronomer Roger Clifton Jennison in 1958, has been extensively applied in astronomical interferometry since the mid 1970s, yielding high resolution images of astronomical sources at radio, infrared and optical wavelengths.

The technique of combining radio waves, known as very long baseline interferometry, is common enough in radio astronomy.

Thanks to recent distance measurements with an international network of radio telescopes, including the EVN (European Very Long Baseline Interferometry Network) telescopes, the NSF's Green Bank Telescope and Arecibo Observatory, astronomers realized that VLA J2130 +12 is at a distance of 7,200 light years, showing that it is well within our own Milky Way galaxy and about five times closer than M15.

Another team, led by scientists from the Joint Institute for Very Long Baseline Interferometry in Europe (JIVE), in Dwingeloo, The Netherlands, will use a world - wide network of radio telescopes, including the NRAO telescopes, to track the probe's trajectory with unprecedented accuracy.

With the technique of very long baseline interferometry, astronomers can hook up radio telescopes, distant from one another in different countries and on continents, to mimic a single «virtual» telescope with an aperture as wide as Earth.
