Square kilometer array

The Square Kilometer Array, once complete will be a radiotelescope with a planned collecting area of a square kilometer. \nIt will be sensitive in the frequencies of 0.15-20 GHz, and its size will make it one hundred time more sensitive than current instruments. It may incorporate multiple independant fields of view, allowing more than one radio astronomer to obeserve at once, or to look at different areas of the sky simultaneously. An international consortium is working on the design and location, to be decided around 2007.
