ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Y
Observatory: PARKES RADIO TELESCOPE
Description: The Parkes radio telescope is located in Australia and is administered by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). The source of interest in this proposal has been frequently observed with the Parkes radio telescope and therefore guarantees a detection of its radio giant pulse emission.
