GOVIND SWARUP ments indicate that the first stars and galaxies collapsed gravitationally from the primordial neutral hydrogen (HI) at redshifts <strong>of</strong> about 30. Later, neutral HI got ionized by UV by about redshift <strong>of</strong> ~6. Details <strong>of</strong> the epoch <strong>of</strong> Reionization are <strong>of</strong> great importance for studies <strong>of</strong> structure formation in the Universe, requiring measurements <strong>of</strong> emission and absorption <strong>of</strong> HI in the frequency range <strong>of</strong> about 50 to 200 MHz. Q.5: Is there intelligent life search elsewhere in our Galaxy The proposed Square Kilometer Array (SKA) will allow studies <strong>of</strong> radio emission from extra-solar planets and Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) towards millions <strong>of</strong> stars. 10. Conclusion Radio astronomy observations have revealed occurrence <strong>of</strong> truly violent phenomena in the Universe such as those occurring in radio galaxies and quasars, indicating the presence <strong>of</strong> supermassive Black Holes in the nuclei <strong>of</strong> the galaxies. One <strong>of</strong> the greatest discoveries <strong>of</strong> the last century was that <strong>of</strong> Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation which provided support to Big Bang cosmology. Its detailed observations combined with other astronomical data have indicated that visible matter is only 0.04%, dark matter 0.26% and dark energy 0.7% <strong>of</strong> matter density in the Universe. Discovery <strong>of</strong> line emission <strong>of</strong> neutral hydrogen (HI) allows investigations <strong>of</strong> the formation and evolution <strong>of</strong> galaxies and their dynamics. Observations <strong>of</strong> a binary Pulsar by Hulse and Taylor have provided evidence <strong>of</strong> gravitational radiation predicted by the General Theory <strong>of</strong> Relativity. Over 140 molecules have been discovered in the interstellar medium <strong>of</strong> our Galaxy. These molecules are ingredients <strong>of</strong> life on earth and raise the question <strong>of</strong> whether life exists elsewhere. There are many major questions today for which the ambitious SKA project that is likely to materialize by 2020 may provide a clue. Over the last few decades, additionally to the radio window, sensitive observations made at X-Rays, UV, optical and infrared parts <strong>of</strong> the electromagnetic spectrum have provided important information about the physical processes in stars and galaxies. This multi-wavelength astronomical research may give us further insight into the mysteries <strong>of</strong> the Universe. 88 The Scientific Legacy <strong>of</strong> the 20 th Century
