International Square Kilometre Array Steering
Committee (ISSC)
The International SKA Steering Committee (ISSC) was formed by international
agreement at the time of the 24th General Assembly of the International
Astronomical Union in Manchester, U.K, in August 2000. The ISSC
currently represents eleven countries who are parties to the agreement.
The purpose of the ISSC is to:
- promote the SKA as an international project,
- provide oversight and act as a coordinating body to establish
agreed goals and timelines for the project, and
- develop a joint international technical and scientific proposal
for the SKA, including an implementation and cost plan.
The executive of the ISSC consists of:
Chair: Brian Boyle, CSIRO, Australia
Vice-chair: Ken Kellermann, National Radio Astronomy Observatory,
USA
Past-chair: Phil Diamond, JBO, United Kingdom
Secretary: Richard Schilizzi, ISPO
