SST will be showcasing its Radioastronomy Research to the public.

Booth Name:
LISTENING TO THE UNIVERSE

Research Work Description:

Over the last 5 years, SST has been conducting Astronomy-Based Research for its students. Amongst the more interesting are the projects based on radio telescopes. There are various models of radio telescopes available for the students to work on.

SST will be showcasing the following radio telescopes that are relevant to the amatuer astronomers: RADIOJOVE, INSPIRE, SSID, SSRT and WRMDS. These telescopes operate on different frequencies to detect emissions from the planet Jupiter, Lightning, Solar Flares and Meteors. This exhibition booth aims to open up the radio spectrum where we can “hear” the universe.
