Where is the specific location of Eye of the Sky in China?

The project is located in Dawodang karst depression, Kedu Town, Pingtang County, Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province, and is a major national science and technology infrastructure.

The 500-meter spherical radio telescope (FAST) consists of an active reflector system, a feed support system, a measurement and control system, a receiver, a terminal and an observation base.

Extended data:

The 500-meter spherical radio telescope uses the potholes in Guizhou karst area as the telescope site to build the world's largest single-aperture radio telescope, with a receiving area as large as 30 standard football fields. As the largest single-aperture telescope in the world, FAST will maintain its world-class status in the next 20 to 30 years. Brand-new design ideas, coupled with the unique advantages of the site, make it break through the 100-meter engineering limit of the telescope and create a new mode of building a giant radio telescope.
