Summary

"The most powerful telescope in the world was built in a remote area of China. It has already received signals from many light years away. The FAST Telescope is a marvel of engineering. It is no wonder that millions of people have flocked to the area to feast their eyes upon it and learn all about it. The Chinese telescope will use the Next Generation Archive System to help store and maintain its findings. It will also be aided by the European Southern Observatory. The goal of both FAST and SKA is to help solve mysteries"--, Provided by publisher
