China is building the world’s largest radio telescope in Guizhou province, south west China.
Construction for the Five hundred metre Aperture Spherical Telescope, shortened to FAST, started in March 2011. The project is now expect to be completed by September 2016.
The gigantic radio telescope will cost approximately 1.2 billion Yuan (£120 million), making it the biggest astronomy project China has ever had.
It will allow scientists to get weaker radio signals from outer space, even further than our solar system, reported People's Daily Online.

Using Arecibo as a back-sight, with HAARP and the new "telescope" in Hawaii as wave guides, FANCO has checkmated the Chinese project before it's activated. You don't have to thank us, just send cash.
It's going to be Slim Whitman 24/7 for our Chinese friends.

Mr. Pigmeat and Mr. Fansome....I'd like to put in an early request...how about "China Girl" by David Bowie? 8)

How about the original by Iggy Pop? Bowie's voice was processed to the tenth degree to get his range down to do "China Girl". Iggy came out of the womb sounding that way. I understand in utero smoking was the method he used.

Tip of the hat to you Mr. Pigmeat for this musical fun fact...I didn't know that Iggy did this first. Of course, I had to google it and it turns out that it was cowritten by Iggy and Bowie, with Bowie adding his vocals to the Iggy version. To top off this excursion into the arcane folklore of music, the Bowie version of this song sported a lead guitar by none other then Stevie Ray Vaughan along with producer Nile Rodgers! OK...crank up that HAARP xmtr and I'll be listening without benefit of the tinfoil hat :o

A new drone video has been released by China Central Television Station showing the latest progress of one of the country's most ambitious scientific projects - a radio telescope the size of 30 football pitches.

"Football pitches" ??? We throw football's in this country, bub, and don't you forget it. The surface it's played on is called a "field". Learn it, live it, love it.
Fellas, I'm beginning to think Oliver got into this country by tunneling under The Great Wall of Trump. Mr. Fansome, inform the Great Bloviator, we've caught ourselves a live one.

Haven't seen a wall in the middle of the Atlantic. :o
Nor any drones that could shoot the plane I travelled in,out of the sky.
But the rethoric Trump is using is quiet something.

I coulda been a contender, if only I had smoked while in the womb....woe is me
