Description
Construction of the SKAO’s telescopes is moving at pace, with the first on-sky measurements emerging from SKA-Low in Australia and soon, completion of the first array releases for both Low and Mid telescopes and a ramp-up in effort towards first science to the community in due course.
I will provide an update on status of construction and the organisation and the efforts underway to grow the international partnership. I will reflect on Sweden’s already significant role through our cooperation agreement with Chalmers and look forward to the steps needed for Sweden to complete the process for full Membership of SKAO, hopefully in the coming months.
