The One-Mile Telescope at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory (MRAO), Cambridge, UK is an array of radio telescopes (two fixed and one moveable, fully steerable 60 ft-diameter (18 m) parabolic reflectors operating simultaneously at 1407 MHz and 408 MHz)[1] designed to perform aperture synthesis interferometry.
