CSIRO Square Kilometre Array Observatory

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is an international initiative to construct the world's largest and most sensitive radio telescope, with sites in Australia and South Africa. In Australia, the SKA-Low telescope is being built at Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara, the CSIRO Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory in Western Australia. This facility will comprise 131,072 antennas, each two meters tall and shaped like a Christmas tree, designed to receive low-frequency radio waves. The observatory aims to enable transformational science, enhancing our understanding of the universe's evolution, cosmic magnetism, and the search for extraterrestrial life.
