By combining an innovative Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-based calibration technique with the unparalleled sensitivity of future gamma-ray and radio telescope arrays, this project will study astronomical particle accelerators and Dark Matter with unprecedented accuracy. This will afford us a unique view of the Universe' most energetic processes and allow us to study the laws of physics inaccessible to us in the lab. In the context of interdisciplinary research, the UAV innovation created will also be leveraged against key applications of remote sensing. With these two goals, this project will demonstrate the capabilities of novel Australian technology whilst providing Australia with a unique science use-case in high-energy astrophysics.
