The Lunar Crater Radio Telescope (LCRT) is a proposal by the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts to create an ultra-long-wavelength radio telescope inside a crater on the far side of the moon. If completed, the telescope would be the largest filled-aperture radio telescope in the solar system at 1km in diameter.[1]
