Through the department, Penn State is a partner in a number of prominent multi-institution and international research collaborations built around world-class instrumentation. Our scientists have been integral to designing the Hobby-Eberly Telescope, building the Chandra X-ray Observatory’s ACIS camera, and leading instrument teams and operations for the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory.
