>>8182361
read the news, name in filename.
Those plates aren't even adjusted properly lol. They all have messed up angles.
Also what good is a telescope if you can't rotate it ? Do you just wish the world to rotate wherever you want it to look at ?
>>8182151

>>8182366
The panels can move independently.
>>8182376

>>8182151
They're trying, but truth is that Chinese engineers suck dick, and China is behind fucking Netherlands in R&D.
>>8182151
It was about 2000 years before I was born so i'm not sure
That's a big wok.
Honest question, do any of you think mandarin will ever be worth learning for someone who expects to die sometime before this century ends?
I know Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, German, English, and Japanese already. Will I be set at least for the coming 60 or so years?
>>8182400
>>8182576
No, Chinese will recruit other Chinese that can speak and translate foreign languages.
>>8182576

>>8182451
still better then the burger land
>>8182819
You would get shot up into space
>a telescope
>Is a giant satellite dish
I'm sorry but how does this work? How can they see through a dish? Does the light get absorbed, and the little hole in the center refracts it and let's them see millions of lightyears into space?
>>8182857
that's the reflector, not the antenna
wikipedia arecibo for details, very similar
>>8182857
Radio waves son, not light.
>>8182151
I want to make a giant stir fry in that dish
>>8182151
Isn't this just the Arecibo Observatory? Except in China.
>>8183267
except from bigger. And except from that the Arecibo is old and looks like it will be closed down.
>>8182847

>>8182151
isn't that the laser part of the death star
>>8182857
>not knowing what the fuck radio telescopes are
This guy is a bit fresh for this sub.
>>8182847
US' academia is mostly sustained by immigrants though
Worlds biggest beyblade stadium
>>8182368
Which is probably funded by Chinese investors.
>>8182151
where's focuser reflector thing that's supposed to go in the middle?
>>8187137
Some of the panels are still missing. It's not finished in this shot.
>>8183252
You know they are going to make the biggest noodle stir fry in the world in that bitch, wok this way!
>>8182396
>what are we observing
Probably also satellites

>China has stated that its space program has peaceful purposes, but the US Defence Department has said it was pursuing activities aimed to "prevent adversaries from using space-based assets in a crisis," reported news agency Reuters.
