Description

The SKA is now in the detailed design phase with construction scheduled to begin in early 2018, followed by early science from about 2020. A major component of its broad-ranging science program is focused on addressing questions in fundamental physics. The current status of the project will be summarised and the prospects for advancing relativistic astrophysics will be highlighted.
