The SEARFE Project (Students Exploring Australia’s Radio Frequency Environment) aims to give senior high-school students practical experience in the value and use of the radio-frequency spectrum, an overview of the scientific objectives of the next generation radio telescopes and a practical understanding of why these telescopes have to operate in radio-quiet areas. Students involved in the SEARFE Project are:

  • measuring the useage of the radio-frequency environment in their local area
  • using the Internet to communicate results and new experiments to other students and scientists
  • producing a database of radio-frequency usage in Australia
  • helping in the search for radio-quiet sites for future radio astronomy.
