The astronomical research at ASTRONÂ is closely aligned with the strengths of our facilities LOFAR and WSRT-APERTIFÂ and contributes to the development and definition of the scientific programme and
Radio telescopes are used to observe our universe and to provide astronomers with detailed images and spectra. We use antenna technology to receive radio signals from the universe.
The SKA will generate more data than we have processed and analysed ever before. To make this possible, innovation in hardware, software and expertise is crucial.
