The Search For Aliens Is About To Get More Intense

This is a very fascinating article about how many astronomers, scientists, and space research organizations have gathered together to make a design of the biggest telescope on earth. This project will cost a total of 1.5 Billion USD. Even though the construction has not started yet, it is planed to be up and running by 2020. Many scientists from around the world have began designing complex instruments that will help us give a clearer picture. The purpose of this telescope is to be able to see even farther into the universe and pick up more radio waves from space. The telescope will be built in the middle of the Atacama desert in Chile.
I chose this article because I thought it was very intriguing that scientists will be building a gigantic telescope that can look even farther into space. I know this article is valid because it is on a reliable website and also it is on BBC news so I know it is a true and valid story. This article proves that technology has not only helped us in everyday life, but even when we are exploring the farthest edges of space itself. What caught my attention in this article is that it costs a lot of money, 1.5 Billion USD. This makes me wonder, who is funding their project?
