The Green Bank Telescope (GBT) is positioned to answer some of the most compelling scientific challenges and frontiers in astronomy and astrophysics.
The unique capabilities of the GBT will allow for major advances in the study of:
- pulsar timing and the detection of gravitational waves
- time domain and multi-messenger astronomy
- the search for the biochemical signatures of life
- origins and evolution of stars and galaxies
The Green Bank Observatory will also be a key partner for the Next Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) project.
