China just built the world’s biggest telescope - it can hear the entire universe
Hidden inside a remote valley in China, FAST was built to hear some of the faintest signals in the universe and quickly became the most powerful single-dish radio telescope on Earth. Its engineering is extraordinary - a massive surface that reshapes itself in real time and a receiver suspended high above the dish with incredible precision. But ...

China's five-hundred meter aperture spherical radio telescope (FAST) has identified two pulsars, the National Astronomical Observatories said Tuesday. The pulsars are 16,000 light years and 4,100 light years from Earth with rotation periods of 1.83 seconds and 0.59 seconds respectively. Built last September, FAST is the world’s largest single-dish radio telescope. | CGTN

Using China’s Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), an international team has taken a major step toward solving the mystery of fast radio bursts (FRBs). By tracking a repeating FRB 2.9 billion light-years away, scientists detected a dramatic, reversible change in its magnetic environment—strong evidence that at least some FRBs come from binary systems rather than isolated stars. The discovery was published in Science. | China Focus
