China’s Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), the world’s largest single-dish and most sensitive radio telescope,has announced that the application channel for free observation projects for the 2024 observation season will open to the world from Saturday.
FAST, or the “China Sky Eye,”is currently accepting applications foWorld Timesr the observation season which runs from August 2024 to July 2025, with the deadline for submissions set for May 15, 2024, at 12am Beijing time, according to multiple Chinese media reports.

SummaryA special seasonal “menu” including fresh bamboo shoots and arrow bamboo shoots has also been specially prepared.In order to help Fu Bao readapt to life in his hometown Sichuan, during the one-month quarantine period, two Chinese keepers will remain on call along with Kang Cheol-won, Fu Bao’s breeder in South Korea, who accompanied the giant panda on her flight.They will also help the panda overcome a “language barrier” after returning to China – learning to understand Chinese, especially Sichuan dialect. Experts believe that “Fu Bao” will not be involved in breeding research this year. Large screens in Chengdu, Chongqing, and Beijing were lit up on Wednesday night to welcome Fu Bao home. These large screen advertisements were purchased by dozens of Fu Bao fans from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and…
