AskScience AMA Series: AskScience AMA Series: We are users and friends of the Arecibo Observatory, ask us anything!

We are all saddened by the unfortunate news that the Arecibo Observatory's 305-m telescope will be decommissioned due to safety concerns following a second support cable failure. The telescope has been part of a world-class research facility in radio astronomy, planetary science, and atmospheric science. Among it's many contributions to science, the telescope was used in the discovery of the first binary pulsar system, ice on Mercury, the first exoplanets, and the first repeating Fast Radio Burst. It has been used to track hundreds of Near-Earth Asteroids with its planetary radar system, surveyed Galactic and extragalactic Hydrogen, discover new pulsars (at different frequencies, too), and open up the low-frequency gravitational wave window to the Universe.

A number of users of the telescope who study a wide number of topics decided to come together to answer your questions today about the Observatory and the science it has pioneered, and share our stories of the telescope and Observatory. We encourage other friends of Arecibo to share feel free to share their stories as well.

  • Megan is a pulsar astronomer who works on pulsar searching and timing toward the goal of detecting gravitational waves. Much of her pulsar research has been done using Arecibo thanks to its world-class sensitivity. She was a summer student at Arecibo, and has fond memories of that summer, subsequent visits to the observatory, working with the telescope operators and staff, and teaching others how to use the telescope.
  • Michael J has been working with Arecibo for over 8 years. As part of the ALFALFA team (Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (Arecibo L-band Feed Array)) he has worked on performing a census of the hydrogen gas in galaxies, and how the gas content of galaxies varies with their surrounding environment. Cool (100s to 1000s of Kelvin) hydrogen gas spontaneously emits a very faint radio signal with a wavelength of about 21 cm (or equivalently 1420

β€œMost observatories won’t let you touch anything, but at Arecibo, you could play around with their telescope," says Dan Werthimer, a SETI researcher, on the loss of Arecibo. "They let you tinker and play and ... If you had a wild and crazy idea, they would help you make it happen.” supercluster.com/editoria…

Does anyone know of any work study programs for students to help rebuild the Arecibo observatory?

I am an engineering student and I would like to come to PR to help work on that project. Does anyone know of any way i can do this?

NASA is considering a rover-deployed telescope on the Moon that would consist of 128 radio antennas arranged in a flowerlike shape about 6 miles wide. They're also considering building massive radio telescopes inside of lunar craters, much like Arecibo Observatory (from Contact, GoldenEye, etc). astronomy.com/news/2020/0…
