What has the 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) explored so far? The 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) is the largest radio telescope in the world, which took 22 years to build. 1994, scientist Nan Ren Dong and his R&D team put forward the idea and construction of the Eye of the Sky, which was not completed until 20 16 and officially put into use in 2020!

The 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) can not only observe pulsars in the universe, but also inspect the cornerstones in the universe. Wang Qiming, a designer who once participated in the design of Sky Eye, said: "Sky Eye can not only study the large-scale physics of the universe, but also explore the origin of civilization of the universe" and so on. So for today's "500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST)", its ability can completely observe the cornerstone of the universe, and can also be extended to the edge of the universe, allowing us to discover the early images of the universe.

In addition, based on the powerful function of the celestial eye, we can also observe the Milky Way galaxy outside the earth. If there are aliens in this world, the information of these so-called aliens is likely to be discovered by eye detection. Because before this, scientists from international scientific research projects proposed to China that they hoped that the 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) would become more and more developed. During this period, some high-tech equipment would be installed, and then they would work together to find traces of aliens.

Up to now, as of March 2020, the 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) has found more than 100 high-quality pulsar candidates, and it is believed that we will find more pulsars and new species outside the earth in the future.

The road to the development of the 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) 1994, with the mentality of giving it a try, Nan embarked on the road of building the world's largest radio telescope "FAST". At first, this idea is often simple for Nan, but if you really want to do it, it will not be so easy! However, this seems to be an impossible task. Starting from the location of Tian Yan, they finally found the most suitable place to build a telescope, and this place was chosen from many places: Pingtang, Guizhou. At this time, the problem of site selection is solved.

But for Nan Ren Dong and his team, it took them 65,438+03 years to choose the location and study themselves. Moreover, during this period, they have no way out, even if they encounter problems, they must learn to solve them one by one. However, the only way to solve these problems is to persevere, work hard and study new technologies.

In the end, "hard work pays off"! 20 16 September, with the news that the 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) was successfully built, people all over the country got to know the great scientist Nan and the radio telescope he built with 22 years of his life.
