(Are you an SKA Ambassador)

The SKA (South Africa) is embarking in its final phase of ensuring a successful outcome of the bidding process with Australia.Having initiated the precursor, to the Square Kilometre Array, MeerKAT we are on our way to affirming that we indeed poses the ability to answer the questions that SKA is attempting to answer. MeerKAT is already making scientific breakthrough and it is an indication that indeed we are ready to host SKA.

It is however of critical importance that, like with the Soccer World Cup 2010, the nation should rally behind the SKA (South Africa) bid. SKA (South Africa) and the Northern Cape Provincial Government calls on every South African to pledge their support through its endorsement campaign. The question is: Are you an SKA Ambassador.
