Abstract :
The past decade has seen an explosion of creativity and progress in radio astronomy telescopes and techniques. In the coming decade, we will harvest the fruit of these innovations with a powerful new generation of radio telescopes that are coming on line. These will open avenues for new science, in areas such as the epoch of reionization, synoptic surveys for radio transients, and exquisitely sensitive observations of the most distant objects in the Universe.
