  1. 2. A time when the first starts lights up a few hundred million years after the Big Bang, casting an end to the Dark ages.
  2. 3. What is the bright band of hydrogen gas in a fisheye lens picture of the night sky?
  3. 6. The physicist describes gravity as a geometric property of space and time.
  4. 7. a high-speed data transmission medium. Digital data is transmitted through the cable through rapid pulses of light.
  5. 10. The world's largest radio telescope
  6. 12. A rapidly spinning neutron star that is highly magnetized.
  7. 16. the location where 200-250 large dishes will be built.
  8. 18. An astronomical instrument that consists of a radio receiver and an antenna system that is used to detect radio-frequency radiation emitted by extraterrestrial sources.
  9. 19. A region of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum where wavelengths range from 700nm to 1mm.
  10. 20. an object that turn radio waves into electricity, then transformed into light
Down
  1. 1. A control building made up of metal skins that protects the computers from telescope radiations.
  2. 4. a theoretical repulsive force that counteracts gravity and causes the universe to expand at an accelerating rate.
  3. 5. What are the disturbances in the curvature (fabric) of spacetime called?
  4. 8. An important factor in the shaping of our galaxy, where magnetism is ubiquitous in the universe.
  5. 9. What is the element that makes up most of the universe and is the fuel for stars?
  6. 11. A branch of astronomy that involves the origin and the evolution of universe
  7. 13. A transient astronomical event when a massive star or a white dwarf explodes, causing a sudden appearance of a "new" bright star.
  8. 14. A hypothetical matter that is thought to account for most matters in the universe.
  9. 15. A type of array formed when a large number of small, fixed antenna elements coupled to appropriate receiver systems.
  10. 17. What is the name of the agency that designed and engineered Australian Square Kilometer Array Pathfinder (ASKAP)?
