Re: Video footage of Arecibo Collapsing
This is just so sad to me.

I remember in 2003 keeping my computer on so it could crunch data for the SETI project in Arecibo.

I can't help but feel loss even though I know the telescope was in serious disrepair. It helped so many astronomers do such great work!

Re: Video footage of Arecibo Collapsing
It's really amazing it lasted this long, with 900 tons of equipment suspended 450 feet in the air in a windy area.

With the dynamic loads of the wind, and the cables pulled so taught they were almost horizontal, the stress on the cables just had to be enormous.

OUTRAGEOUS NEGLECT
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78069695


The category 4 hurricane damaged the cables

They probably allowed collapse to allow outrage and to gain public support to completely replace the telescope

Re: Video footage of Arecibo Collapsing
Can’t even build a bridge and shed properly or keep it from collapsing

But we’re supposed to believe they built a lunar module (with duct-tape and tin-foil) and they were able to keep it intact as it went through the high speeds, high pressure and radiation belts

Ok
