Centre to boost SKA prospects
Monday, 21 September, 2009
A $100 million International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) has been opened in Perth.
The centre is a joint venture between Curtin University of Technology and the University of Western Australia and is sponsored by the state government. The CSIRO and iVEC are both collaborating partners.
Designed to play a pivotal role in Australia's effort to secure the $2.5 billion square kilometre array (SKA), ICRAR will coordinate WA's radio astronomy research.
