Radio Observatorio de Jicamarca

Radio Observatorio de Jicamarca (JRO) is a scientific facility of Peru's Instituto Geofísico del Perú and the main equatorial incoherent-scatter radar observatory in the western hemisphere. IGP uses its radar and supporting instruments to observe and monitor the equatorial ionosphere and upper atmosphere. IGP's current visitor page says guided visits are suspended until further notice; contact IGP before travel and do not assume walk-in access to the active research facility.
