The NRAO's Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) Dish located at Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO), a Program of NSF NOIRLab. The array consists of 10 identical antennas, separated by distances from 200 kilometers to transcontinental 8600 kilometers (with the longest baseline between Maunakea, Hawai’i and St. Croix, Virgin Islands). The VLBA Dish is controlled remotely from the Science Operations Center in Socorro, New Mexico.
