Very Small Array



The Very Small Array is a 14-element radio telescope operating between 26 and 36GHz that is used to study the cosmic microwave background radiation. It is an interferometer, with three different configurations - 'compact', 'extended' and 'super-extended', each of which differ in the separation distance between the elements.
