Radio Astronomy at Extremely Low Frequencies?

I believe that Extremely Low Frequencies (ELFs) are defined as frequencies from 3 to 30 Hz. The lowest frequencies…

Originally the antennas which comprise the VLA were connected to the electronics which are used to combine the signals…

Both planets have strong radio emission due to several different emission processes. Below a frequency of 40 MHz, cyclotron-maser…

I think that you will find it informative to read the detailed description of a 400MHz radio interferometer build…

You can find a description of the conversion you are looking for on the Spitzer Telescope Handbook page on…

Yes. In fact, just such a project has been proposed to build an autonomous remote-controlled radio observatory on the…

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the U.S. National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.
	Founded in 1956, the NRAO provides state-of-the-art radio telescope facilities for use by the international scientific community. NRAO telescopes are open to all astronomers regardless of institutional or national affiliation. Observing time on NRAO telescopes is available on a competitive basis to qualified scientists after evaluation of research proposals on the basis of scientific merit, the capability of the instruments to do the work, and the availability of the telescope during the requested time. NRAO also provides both formal and informal programs in education and public outreach for teachers, students, the general public, and the media.
	The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 "to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense..."
	AUI collaborates with the scientific community and research sponsors to plan, build, and operate cutting-edge facilities. We cultivate excellence, deliver value, enhance education, and engage the public.
