" The Hubble Space Telescope has long been lauded as the biggest breakthrough in astronomical investigation. That is, until now. An international collaboration between astronomers across the globe has resulted in the creation of an Earth-sized virtual telescope that is capable of detecting features 3,000 times smaller than the Hubble can see.

The resolution achieved by this telescope is the equivalent of sitting in New York and being able to see the dimples on a golf ball in Los Angeles."
