IRAM 30-meter Telescope

The IRAM 30-meter Telescope is a large radio observatory located in Spain that studies the universe by detecting radio waves emitted by celestial objects. Its 30-meter diameter dish allows it to observe distant galaxies, stars, and planets with high sensitivity and resolution. By analyzing these signals, scientists learn about the composition, structure, and processes of the cosmos, especially in the millimeter and submillimeter wavelength ranges. This helps us understand phenomena like star formation, molecular clouds, and the interstellar medium, providing valuable insights into the universe’s evolution.
