    📡 The 𝐅𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐞 is the most sensitive fixed radio telescope in the world! 🌍✨ Unlike the 100m Effelsberg radio telescope, FAST is built into a natural depression.

    However, it uses an 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 ⚙️ to adjust its sensitivity and capture signals from different parts of the sky 🌌: The 𝟒,𝟒𝟓𝟎 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐬 of its upward-facing dish dynamically deform. FAST can receive signals from an area of about 40° around the zenith. 🔭 Thanks to Earth’s rotation 🌍, it can also observe different celestial objects.

    🔎 𝙁𝙤𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙣: Imagine you are lying flat on your back and looking straight up – that’s the zenith (90° above the horizon). If you extend your arm forward and make a fist 🤜 , the width of your fist represents about 10° in the sky. If you stack two fists on top of each other 🤜🤛 or spread the fingers of one hand ✋, you get about 20°.

    - in , is the standard since they use "Colour Space".
    - is the go-to solution for a lot of and non-Voice/Music work.
    - (1:1 ) & () are excellent tools being used for .
    - @torproject is the go-to communications solution for state and non-state actors.
    - :monero: is the black market currency #1

    All are FLOSS'd!

    - in #RadioAstronomy, #GIMP is the standard since they use #64bit "Colour Space".
    - #Audacity is the go-to solution for a lot of #RF and non-Voice/Music #Audio work.
    - #WebCall (1:1 #E2EE) & #JitsiMeet (#Videoconferencing) are excellent tools being used for #Videocalling.
    - @torproject #Tor is the go-to communications solution for state and non-state actors.
    - #Monero :monero: is the black market currency #1

  5. This is the that matters the most. Could we perhaps come up with the will and the funds to rebuild it? Seriously; if we are going to be shooting down "" every few days; it makes a lot of sense to kickstart the work of before we inadvertently start an interstellar fight we can't finish.

  6. This is the #SuperBowl that matters the most. Could we perhaps come up with the will and the funds to rebuild it? Seriously; if we are going to be shooting down "#UFOs" every few days; it makes a lot of sense to kickstart the work of #SETIInstitute before we inadvertently start an interstellar fight we can't finish.

  7. The South African MeerKAT telescope is the precursor of SKA-MID. The expanded MeerKAT+ array — including more than a dozen additional SKA antennas and receivers — is part of a project funded in partnership by SARAO (@ska_africa), the Max Planck Society (@maxplanckgesellschaft), and INAF.

  12. Australia has one of the most fantastic #RadioAstronomy instruments in the world - #ASKAP - which is gearing up the science for the upcoming SKA telescope.

    Our team at CSIRO ATNF have got an excellent #SciComm / comms role going at the moment if you know someone?
