The view from a balloon


This fantastic image of the Chilbolton LOFAR site was taken from a balloon flight a couple of miles away last night (July 8th). The dish and control rooms are clearly visible, as is the partially completed (the black regions) HBA field. Behind the HBA field is the completed LBA field although, of course, you can't see the individual HBAs from this distance.
Many thanks to Tim Freegarde (Southampton Physics) and friends for providing me with this!
