Description
The Australian SKA Pathfinder is a new-generation radio telescope now under
construction at a pristine site in Western Australia, the Murchison
Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO). ASKAP will trial innovative
wide-field-of-view technology to achieve the fastest survey speed at the key
frequency band around 1 GHz. International Science Survey Teams have been
organized to plan and development the methods and techniques to achieve an
ambitious set of scientific goals. ASKAP will be operational in early 2013.
