In the quest to unlock the mysteries of the universe, stray signals can be a major hurdle. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) in Western Australia is nearing completion, with crucial work on its datacentre almost done. Two Faraday cages have been installed to prevent any radio wave interference that could disrupt the operations of this massive radio telescope. This careful planning ensures that the SKA can capture the clearest signals from the cosmos, paving the way for groundbreaking discoveries
