Space researchers propose a network of radio antennas on the moon's far side to monitor stellar systems. Led by Professors Jack Burns and Greg Hallinan, the plan involves deploying 128 antennas using a lunar rover. These antennas will connect to a base station for data processing and communication, spanning 10 kilometers. Signals will be sent back to Earth via NASA's Gateway Station. The antennas can detect magnetospheres of nearby exoplanets and explore the moon's subsurface, benefiting from reduced sky noise on the moon's far side.
