The Very Large Array of Radio Telescopes
Explanation: The most photogenic array of
radio telescopes
in the world has also been one of the most productive. Each of the 27
radio telescopes
in the
Very Large Array
(VLA) is the size of a
house
and can be moved on train tracks. The
above pictured
VLA
, inaugurated in
1980
is situated in
New Mexico
,
USA
. The
VLA
has been used to discover
water on planet Mercury
,
radio-bright coronae around ordinary stars
,
micro-quasars in our Galaxy
,
gravitationally-induced Einstein rings around distant galaxies
, and
radio counterparts to cosmologically distant gamma-ray bursts
. The vast size of the
VLA
has allowed astronomers to study the
details of super-fast cosmic jets
, and even
map the center
of our Galaxy
. An
upgrade of the VLA
is being planned.
