Radio Scope to Probe New Depth
By United Press . i LONDON, July 23 —— When Galfleo made the famous first telescope in Italy 313 years ago he opened a tiny peephole into the] universe. | When Britain gets through building a fantastic new instru-/ ment in Manchester she will open a fairly large window that will enable man to plunge so many, million light years deeper into “space” that if the mileage were like this — “1,000,000,000,000,000,-| 000 . . . ete.”— there would not| be room to complete all the naughts in a column. The instrument is a “radio telescope” sha like a bowl that can be aimed into the sky to pick up radio waves emanating from black, or unseen, stars so far away that some astronomers may just have dreamed they existed.
It is the climax of developments) of war-time radio discoveries and| the first big step in the newest science of radio astronomy.
Set Is 300 Feet High
The radio telescope will be completed in four years, It is bigger than Times Square and is 300 feet high. | It will cost £336,000 ($940,000). The scientist in charge of the project is Dr. A. C. B, Lovell, a radio astronomy pioneer of Man-| chester University, i
The new telescope probably will shéw us much that we don’t already know. There are a few thousand stars that the naked eye can see, The 200-inch telescope on Mount Palomar, California, can distinguish, perhaps, another 100 million. . : \ : However, there are believed. to bE 200 billio “wigihle, ata QUE

other 100 billion stars that cannot be seen by telescopes because they are either black—that is, unborn or dead—or because they are too far away. bh They will be “felt” by the new radio telescope whether they are black or incredibly distant.
To Pick Up Waves
The simple idea behind the tele-| scope is that all those distant stars emit radio waves. This
bowl-shaped “receiver” of steel lattice work will move its course across the sky to pick up the incoming radio waves. They will locate the direction of an unseen star. . Questions which arise are: how, deep into miscalled “space” will the frail, questing steel ear of the new instrument take us? Just how insignificant is this thing on which we live, the éarth? everyone knows, even the sun is| only an average star. | © Ag it takes the earth 365 days to move round the sun, so it takes the sun 250 million light years to move around its own orbit, carrying us with it. The sun travels at about 600,000 miles an hour.
Not satisfied with that, Dr. Lovell hopes the new radio telescope will give us more factual material to analyze by probing deeper than ever before into the terrifying skies packed with stars and hurtling meteors and more highly concentrated dust than you find in a flour mill.
