Once again we have been blessed with great rain weather. The ability of the twenty-seven antennas and the data they can collect is amazing. We had the privilege to see the control room and all the other equipment used for this project. We saw the sites that were part of Contact as well as the public site to see the antenna. We saw the transporter and went on a tour of the visitor center.
Radio astronomy is amazing.
The accuracy and quality is fascinating. It was one of the best things that I have seen here. It was worth it to see this project. Despite the rain and delays, we were able to see the largest radio telescope in the world. Then day began with me oversleeping, but I suppose that is beside the point.
