Currently, the radio telescope at Aricebo in Puerto Rica at 305 m diameter is the largest.
In hand are plans for a SKA telescope (see skatelescope.org) in the Southern Hemisphere. This enables our Milky Way galaxy to be studied. The total area of the many dishes will be 1 sq km, hence the name. The resolution of a radio telescope is determined by the length of the baseline, and in this case, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand are collaborators for the ground stations. There are intended to be several different types of aerials to cover a few hundred megahertz, out to a few thousand megahertz. Construction is expected to start in the near future.

Radio Telescope Arrays
Are optical telescopes much bigger then radio telescopes?
No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
How are the telescopes Keck I and Keck II different from radio telescope?
They are optical telescopes.
Radio telescopes are the best way to receive enhanced radio broadcasts.?
---False
A device used to detect radio waves from space?
they use radio waves to pick up some what satellite images or existance of things in space
Group of radio telescopes radio telescope array radio astronomy?
Radio Telescope Arrays
How radio telescopes differ from optical telescopes.?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
Are optical telescopes much bigger then radio telescopes?
No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
How do radio telescopes gathering data?
Radio telescopes gather data from radio sources and they target the radio frequency part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What kind of telescopes do radio telescopes use?
Radio telescopes are basically specially designed antennas. They don't "see" anything. They "hear".
Is the design of radio telescopes very similar to the design of refracting telescopes?
no, reflecting telescopes.
How do optical telescopes and radio telescopes gather info about stars?
using radio waves it collects the data.
What are radio waves detected by?
Radio Telescopes and radio wires
How do radio telescope different from optical telescope?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
What are types of telescopes?
Light telescopes which are refractor and reflector and radio ones.
What type of telescopes?
Light telescopes which are refractor and reflector and radio ones.
Do Optical telescopes have poorer resolution than radio telescopes?
Not necessarily.
