    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_astronomy

    Radio astronomy is a subfield of astronomy that studies celestial objects at radio frequencies. The first detection of radio waves from an astronomical object was in 1933, when Karl Jansky at Bell Telephone Laboratories reported radiation coming from the Milky Way. Subsequent observations have identified a number of different sources of radio ...

    Radio waves from space were first detected by engineer Karl Guthe Jansky in 1932 at Bell Telephone Laboratories in Holmdel, New Jersey using an antenna built to study radio receiver noise. The first purpose-built radio telescope was a 9-meter parabolic dish constructed by radio amateur Grote Reber in his back yard in Wheaton, Illinois in 1937 ...

    TRAO was established in October 1986 with the 13.7 meter Radio Telescope. It opened the new era of the millimeter-wave radio astronomy in Korea as one of the main facilities of Korea Astronomy and Space science Institute [24] (KASI). It is operated by Radio astronomy division in KASI. [25] Korean VLBI Network (KVN) Republic of Korea

    Karl Jansky, an American physicist and radio engineer, first discovered radio waves from the Milky Way in August, 1931. At Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1932, Jansky built an antenna designed to receive radio waves at a frequency of 20.5 MHz, which is a wavelength of approximately 14.6 meters.
