At the Edge of Beyond: Designing the Square Kilometre Array
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is a multinational science project to build the world’s largest and most sensitive radio telescope. Experts from more than a dozen countries are working together on one of the most complex science projects ever conceived to design this next generation radio telescope that will expand our understanding of the Universe and drive technological development worldwide. Australia and South Africa will each host different SKA components. The overall project design is by nine consortia made up of experts from government organisations, research institutes, and industry. Aurecon, in partnership with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), formed the Infrastructure Australia consortium to design the entire site infrastructure, power distribution, and the Central Supercomputing Building for the SKA site in Australia.
