Bernard Lovell and his 76 metre telescope
Sir Bernard Lovell(1913-2012) in front of his telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory in Cheshire,UK. After a wartime career developing radar,he went on to study radio astronomy. In the beginning,he used war surplus radar equipment,but realised a larger,more accurate device was needed. In 1957,he commissioned the world's first giant dish radio telescope,the Mark 1. After improvements in 1970/71 it was designated the Mark 1A,and is now named the Lovell radio telescope. The immense 76 metre dish is fully steerable,and is still used to this day. An array of projects have utilised the facility for research including identifying quasars and studying gravitational lenses
