This geocoin is dedicated to The Very Large Array, one of the world's premier astronomical radio observatories, consisting of 27 radio antennas in a Y-shaped configuration on the Plains of San Agustin fifty miles west of Socorro, New Mexico.
My mission is to visit astronomical observatories as well as other obscure places of interest that might not be as well known.
Each antenna is 25 meters (82 feet) in diameter. The data from the antennas is combined electronically to give the resolution of an antenna 36 km (22 miles) across, with the equivalent sensitivity of a dish 130 meters (422 feet) in diameter.

Please take me on your travels and share with my owner, HuskerMagna, the adventures we have together. PLEASE DO NOT KEEP ME, as I want to travel from cache to cache and return to my owner someday. If you plan on holding onto me for more than 2 weeks, please send a courtesy email to my owner letting him know. Thanks for helping me meet my mission.
