Long Baseline Array
(LBA, Australia Telescope Long Baseline Array, Australian Long Baseline Array)
(radio interferometer using Australian telescopes)
The Long Baseline Array (LBA) is a VLBI interferometer
of cooperating radio telescopes across Australia.
Participation and availability of individual sites has varied over time,
one early observation incorporating the following:
Within Australia, a 2000+ mile baseline is feasible.
Telescopes outside Australia have been used in conjunction,
producing baselines of 6000 miles.
The LBA and the ATCA were the two components
of a 1980s VLBI project called the Australia Telescope (AT).
