The world's largest and most powerful solar radio imaging telescope has just been completed, and will begin its test run in June. The Daocheng Solar Radio Telescope (DSRT), a solar radio imaging telescope that sits on the edge of China's Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, has completed debugging on about 270 antennas. Its sunflower-like, swiveling antennas are designed to follow the sun in a bid to study solar eruptions and how they affect conditions around the Earth. Working in collaboration, the 313 sun-gazers will form a huge virtual telescope at a frequency range from 150 to 450 megahertz, to achieve high-precision imaging of solar events.
