The International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) is a joint venture between Curtin University and the University of Western Australia, established in 2009. The center is dedicated to supporting and expanding radio astronomy research efforts, with a particular focus on projects like the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), an international effort to build the world’s largest radio telescope. ICRAR’s researchers are involved in key aspects of the SKA, including technology development, data-intensive astronomy, and the science associated with black holes, galaxies, and the early Universe. The center aims to enhance the understanding of the cosmos through radio observations, fostering significant advancements in astrophysics. ICRAR also plays a critical role in developing and implementing educational and public outreach activities to promote science awareness and engagement among the broader community.
