Welcome to Hands-On Universe, Europe. The aim of this site is to give remote access to small radio telescopes installed throughout Europe. It is possible to operate these telescopes remotly. Based on your observations, you will be able to build a map of our galaxy, the Milky Way...

Observer

Web interface to remotely use the Antenna. A login and password are required to access this facility.

Simulator

Web interface to access the LAB database and tools to interactively perform the Milky Way-exercise (rotation curve and spiral arms)

Archive

Database of the all the observations taken with the 5 antennas together with tools to (i) display and download the archived results and (ii) create a map of the Milky Way.
