Topic Reading-Vol.180-10/8/2012

Dear MEL School's Topic Readers,
World's fastest radio telescope starts up in Australian outback.
Is “farthest” or “largest” the appropriate word to describe the specs or performance of a telescope? Well, radio telescopes is to "listen" to radio waves from the cosmos.
They built and have just started operating this A$152 mil array of antennas in a remote outback where other man-made radio signals that would interfere with the antennas picking up astronomical radio signals are minimal. And it’s just the beginning of a much larger project to connect more radio antennas in the southern hemisphere.
To show how outstanding this fastest telescope is, it has been book for the next five years by the scientists and astronomers from all over the world!
Enjoy reading and learning about this newest gadget to listen up the sky!
