To help celebrate the VLA’s 40th anniversary, the National Radio Astronomy is conducting an image contest, and offering cash prizes for visually compelling works that incorporate radio observational data from the VLA.

A new image from the VLA dramatically reveals the extended magnetic field of a spiral galaxy seen edge-on from Earth.

AUI and the NRAO have awarded the 2020 Karl G. Jansky Lectureship to Dr. Martha P. Haynes, Goldwin Smith Professor of Astronomy at Cornell University.

Astronomers created a stunning mosaic of ALMA and Hubble images, showing celestial fireworks in star cluster G286.21+0.17.

Something done routinely for decades — move VLA antennas into a new configuration — suddenly became challenging because of COVID-19. With careful planning and a lot of teamwork, the NRAO staff got the job done to keep the scientific research going.

A central mission of the NRAO is to nurture and inspire the next generation of radio astronomers. One way NRAO does this is through the Jansky Fellowship Program.
