MWA (Murchison Widefield Array)
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a sophisticated radio telescope in Western Australia designed to study the universe at low radio frequencies. It consists of 4,096 miniature antennas spread over a large area, working together as a single instrument. By capturing radio signals from space, the MWA helps scientists explore cosmic phenomena like galaxy formation, black holes, and the early universe's evolution. Its wide field of view allows for mapping vast portions of the sky quickly, providing valuable data to understand the universe's history and structure.
