A giant 110-meter radio telescope in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has entered its final construction phase after its three-layer antenna mount was successfully assembled. Set to be operational by 2028, the 6,000-tonne telescope will be one of the world's largest fully steerable radio telescopes, helping scientists study the universe and inspire future astronomers.
