The greatest discoveries in astronomy have accompanied technological innovations that have opened new windows of the electromagnetic spectrum. One of the last poorly explored regions lies at wavelengths longer than 3 m (100 MHz) to the ionospheric cutoff around 30 m (10 MHz). In the past, variations in the ionosphere have limited ground-based instruments to small (< 5 km) apertures and hence relatively coarse angular resolution and low sensitivity.
