Our Mission

Our research mission is to study the early epochs of the Universe through observations of the 21-cm line from cosmic hydrogen. We develop our own radio instruments and data-analysis tools, and apply that knowledge to other scientific and technological challenges in society.

The hunt for the 21-cm line at high redshifts continues.
