Inside the horn

I'm not 100% sure but I think these guys used this telescope to find the 1st evidence of the Big Bang. I think it was 1st built as an antenna for radar experiments.

How many dB SPL c weighted was that bang?

In this photo they are applying metal tape to the inside of the horn trying to get rid of the static plaguing their experiments. Later they came to realize that this noise was the remnants of the beginning of time.

Next time you are trying to get rid of some annoying buzz, stop and wonder, is it leakage from the AC mains, or a message from Vega.
