  Over the past five years, MeerKAT has made remarkable contributions to both South African and international science.

• Here are just four of MeerKAT’s major breakthroughs that I’ve been involved in, and why the findings matter for our understanding of the Universe.

Fascinating findings

• This allowed our team to see for the first time magnetic filaments that surround the supermassive black hole at the heart of our galaxy.
• A supermassive black hole is an extremely dense object with the mass of a million suns.
• The research provided valuable insights into the dynamic processes that shape the galactic environment.
• The Laduma, Mightee and Mhongoose surveys aim to map the distribution of galaxies and neutral hydrogen gas.

Growth and learning

• Members of local communities around the site have been employed during both the construction and operation stages.
• Engagements with those communities, and particularly with schools in the area, are breaking down barriers to participation in astronomy.
• For instance, I have been able to collaborate with astronomers from the UK, Australia, the Netherlands and the US.
