COAST, the Cambridge Optical Aperture Synthesis Telescope, is a multi-element optical astronomical interferometer with baselines of up to 100 metres, which uses aperture synthesis to observe stars with angular resolution as high as one thousandth of one arcsecond ( producing images with much higher resolution than can be obtained using individual telescopes such as the Hubble Space Telescope ).
