New image demonstrates rapid survey capability of ASKAP

An image has been generated with the Boolardy Engineering Test Array (BETA) that covers 50 square degrees of the sky, revealing approximately 2000 sources and demonstrating the rapid survey capability of ASKAP.

ASKAP was designed to rapidly survey large areas of the sky at once and results from the six-antenna BETA instrument continue to confirm that ASKAP will function as intended.
