The Telescope Array is located in the state of Utah in the United States of America, and consists of 507 surface detectors separated by 1.2 km and covering a total area of 700 km, and 3 fluorescence detector stations with 12-14 fluorescence detectors at each station. The Telescope Array was constructed by a collaboration between the teams formerly operating the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), which was a surface detector array in Japan, and the High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes), which was an air fluorescence detector also located in Utah. The Telescope Array was initially designed to detect cosmic rays with energy above 10 eV, but an extension to the project, the Telescope Array Low Energy extension (TALE) is currently underway and will allow observation of cosmic rays with energies above 3 x 10 eV
