I was lucky enough to take a tour of the vlba a few years back when this idea just started,with the whacos,west hawaii astronomy club.and the took us into there farady cage
That cotrolled allof the seperate radio dishes,and correlated the data. They said when they were done linking all of the radio teles in the world they woulld be able to see rite up to the edge of the event horizon of the supermassive black hole at our galaxies center.
Wow I thought the altitude had gotten to his brain,but what an accomplishment!!!!!
We went to 3 telescopes that day and that was the last one. Talk about no oxy after 5 hours up there goin up and down stairs. The vlba main control building had o2 injected into the air and we were high on 20 percent o2 and didnt want to leave LOL.
Was fun thanks to Andrew Cooper our whaco president and keck engineer.
