Since August 2009, the radio telescope has been a national heritage site (rijksmonument).

Muller Radio Astronomy Station" foundation ("CAMRAS" for short) restored the telescope to working order.

In this technique, radio wave signals are aimed at the Moon by one location, bounce off the Moon's surface, and are detected by an antenna at a different location on Earth.

It is based on artistic research with the Dwingeloo Radiotelescoop by artist Daniela De Paulis as part of her project "OPTICKS" [4][5][6] The radio telescope is owned by ASTRON, the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy.

The site of the Dwingeloo Radio Observatory also houses most of the staff of ASTRON and a test site for the Low Frequency Array radio telescope, LOFAR.
