John Orr Lecture: SKA Telescope
We were honoured when Dr
Bernie Fanaroff accepted our invitation to present the 2012 Lecture. Dr
Fanaroff is the Project Director of the SKA (SA) Project. He presented the
lecture titled "The SKA Telescope - a Science & Engineering Challenge
& Opportunity”, held on 27 November 2012.
Due to his schedule, Dr
Fanaroff could only present one lecture at Wits instead of the usual tour of
lectures around the country.
This afforded us the chance to stream the lecture
live on the internet, thus making it available to a much wider audience. Click here to read more... The link for the webcast is accessible by clicking here. | Latest R&D Journals published
