Grand old man of Radio Astronomy -- The Rebirth of Fleurs - Christiansen -- The Radioheliograph and Beyond - Wild -- The One Mile Cross - Mills -- A Transformed World - Bracewell -- Discussion -- Conclusions. 330 $aThis is the story of Bernie Mills, Chris Christiansen, Paul Wild and Ron Bracewell, members of a team of radio astronomers that would lead Australia, and the world, into this new field of research. Each of the four is remembered for his remarkable work: Mills for the development the cross type instrument that now bears his name; Christiansen for the application of rotational synthesis techniques; Wild for the masterful joining of observations and theory to elicit the nature of the solar atmosphere; Bracewell for his contribution to imaging theory. As well, these Four Pillars are remembered for creating a remarkable environment for scientific discovery and for influencing the careers of future generations. Their pursuit of basic science helped pave the way for technological developments in areas ranging from Wi-Fi to sonar to medical imaging to air navigation, and for underpinning the foundations of modern cosmology and astrophysics. 410 0$aAstronomers' Universe,$x1614-659X 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aHistory 606 $aElectronic circuits 606 $aMicrowaves 606 $aOptical engineering 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 606 $aElectronic Circuits and Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31010 606 $aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aElectronic circuits. 615 0$aMicrowaves. 615 0$aOptical engineering. 615 14$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 615 24$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aElectronic Circuits and Devices. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering. 676 $a522.682 700 $aFrater$b R.H$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0871934 702 $aGoss$b W.M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aWendt$b H.W$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254593003321 996 $aFour Pillars of Radio Astronomy: Mills, Christiansen, Wild, Bracewell$91946790 997 $aUNINA
