VLBI2010

VLBI2010 (Very Long Baseline Interferometry 2010) is a global project to improve how we measure Earth's shape, position, and rotation. It uses a network of radio telescopes working together to observe distant celestial sources with extremely high precision. By combining signals from multiple telescopes spread across vast distances, VLBI2010 can detect tiny variations in Earth's movements and gravity. This enhanced accuracy helps in fields like navigation, geophysics, and climate monitoring, providing critical data for understanding Earth's system and supporting technologies like GPS.
