Abstract

The National Science Foundation has announced the site for the proposed Very Large Array telescope, preliminary funds for which are included in President Nixon's FY 1973 budget proposal. The telescope would be built on the Plains of San Augustin, near Datil, New Mexico, about 50 miles west of Socorro. It would have from 10 to 100 times the resolution of the next largest instrument, which is at Westerbork in the Netherlands.
