China’s five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope, the world’s largest filled-aperture and most sensitive radio telescope, officially opened to the world on Wednesday.
China’s colossal “Sky Eye” telescope is exciting the international scientific community.
The World Laureates Association said George Smoot III, winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics, is one of those interested in making use of it.

Some world-leading scientists said that the five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) in Guizhou province, which officially opened to the world on Wednesday, may turn out Nobel-level discoveries and they may consider applying for observations.
FAST, the world s most sensitive and largest single-dish radio telescope and currently the only one of its kind allowing astronomers and astrophysicists to observe the deep universe, has invited astronomers from around the world to apply on its website (fast.bao.ac.cn/proposal submit) for outer-space observations.

For 57 years, the Arecibo Observatory, a radio/radar telescope facility located about 12 miles (19 kilometers) south of the city of Arecibo in Puerto Rico, was one of astronomy s great treasures.
Until recently, Arecibo had the biggest radio telescope in the world, and its ability to detect distant signals made it one of the world s most powerful tools for studying both planets and moons in our own solar system and mysterious objects in distant regions of the universe. Over the years, scientists used it to determine Mercury s rotation rate and map the surface of Venus, to discover the first binary pulsar and the first known exoplanet. Arecibo s researchers also made important findings about the properties and orbits of asteroids that are potentially hazardous to Earth.
