Overview
Overview
This firsthand account traces the political and scientific interplay that took place in Great Britain during two critical decades in astronomy, from 1960 to 1980. The author describes the development of visionary schemes for radio telescopes of unprecedented size; the events that led to their cancellation; and how astronomers responded with the modification of the 250-foot steerable telescope at Jodrell Bank and the completion of the MERLIN network of radio telescopes.
