This lecture explores the current status of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) Observatory and India's significant contributions to this groundbreaking project, presented by Yashwant Gupta. Learn about the world's largest radio telescope, scheduled to begin operations in 2027, which represents one of the greatest scientific and engineering achievements of the 21st century. The presentation covers how the SKA will revolutionize multiple research areas in astronomy, with particular emphasis on cosmology and radio continuum science at low and mid frequencies. Discover the collaborative opportunities between different astronomical fields, shared observation strategies, data calibration techniques, and innovative analysis methods. This talk is part of the "Radio Cosmology and Continuum Observations in the SKA Era: A Synergic View" program organized by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, bringing together experts to foster collaboration and train the next generation of researchers in radio astronomy.
