NSF NRAO Leads Future of U.S. Radio Astronomy with First Light from Next Generation Very Large Array Prototype
The proposed array’s design will improve on the sensitivity and spatial resolution—with 10 times the effective collecting area and resolution—over the current NSF VLA and the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array at the same wavelengths.
VLBA Maps Turbulent ‘Weather’ in the Milky Way
Astronomers using the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Very Long Baseline Array (NSF VLBA), operated by the NSF National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO), have made the first clear, radio-wavelength detection of how turbulent gas in our own Galaxy distorts light from a distant quasar.
ALMA: The Most Powerful Observatory for Studying Our Universe
Located in Chile’s Atacama desert, 16,570 ft above sea level, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array is the world’s most powerful observatory for studying the universe.
