| Write: | <<SUMSS JHHMMSS+DDMMSS>> |
| N: | 107729 |
| Object: | (Rad) (SIMBAD class: Radio = Radio Source) |
| Note: | Using the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST) with its upgraded wide-field capability, the survey covers 8000 square degrees from -30 degrees declination southwards. The survey resolution and sensitivity (1-sigma noise limit 1 mJy) are well-matched to the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) so that together NVSS and SUMSS will provide a complete survey of the radio sky. |
