First LOFAR LBA Installed at Chilbolton (UK)

Submitter: Karen Masters
Description: This image shows the first Low Band Antenna (LBA) installed at the Chilbolton LOFAR site in its final position. The black ground sheet makes a nice contrast to the white chalk at the site in southern England.

Behind the antenna are various LOFAR-UK scientists helping with the installation. Standing from left to right, Bale Granville, Harry Smith, Hana Schumacher, Martin Bell (former ASTRON summer student), Mike Willis, Derek McKay and Judith Croston. Bob Nichol in front.
