Square Kilometre Array
2 reportsSquare Kilometre Array is a ground observatory that combines a carefully chosen site, telescope systems, instruments, and data pipelines. The project is evaluated through instrument suite, data archive, and atmospheric seeing, separating design goals from capabilities demonstrated in operation.
The main lines of inquiry around Square Kilometre Array include data pipelines, together with instrument suite and data archive. One line of support comes from technical performance records, and a separate test comes from independent observing teams; together they clarify instrument suite, but interpretation remains cautious because weather, detector limits, and target selection can shape the available record.

MeerKAT Telescope Maps Ancient Hydrogen Across Billions of Light Years
Researchers using South Africa's MeerKAT radio telescope have detected faint hydrogen signals from galaxies 4 to 5 billion light-years away, offering a new approach to mapping the universe's large-scale structure through radio intensity mapping
Africa's BALLS Radio Array to Ride Chang'e 8 to Lunar South Pole
A trio of spherical radio astronomy probes from Africa is set to launch aboard China's Chang'e 8 lander in 2029, aiming to deploy at the moon's south pole and test low-frequency radio observations beyond Earth's atmospheric limits
