| Description: | The SKA Board met last week at Schiphol, and one of the main agenda items was the accession of Sweden to the SKA organisation. Sweden is the first of a number of other countries that are considering to join the SKA Organisation soon. The image above shows Patricia Vogel (vice-chair of the SKA Board, and representing NWO), welcoming John Conway (Swedish Board representative) to the fold. The accretion of new members to the organisation greatly boosts the range of expertise available to the project and also contributes the resources required in order to establish a strong and vital SPO (SKA Project Office). |
