We present radio observations of the radio galaxy PKS 2152-699 obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The much higher resolution and s/n of the new radio maps reveals the presence of a bright radio component about 10…

Many of the compact extragalactic radio sources that are used as fiducial points to define the celestial reference frame are known to have proper motions detectable with long-term geodetic/astrometric Very Long Baseline Interferometry…
