Telescope As Big As The Earth
« on: September 08, 2007, 04:28:37 AM »
A week ago, seven telescopes around the world were linked together to watch a distant galaxy called 3C273 in real time and create a single world telescope.

The data from these telescopes, which are located in Australia, China and Europe, was streamed around the world at a rate of 256 Mb per second.

One of the Australian researchers involved in the project said that it was the first time that astronomers have been able to instantaneously connect telescopes half a world apart.

He added that 'the diameter of the Earth is 12,750 km and the two most widely separated telescopes in our experiment were 12,304 km apart.
