The Big Ear radio telescope: photo

Not kept here. This copy isn't ours to show. See it where it's published.

Demolished in 1998 for a golf course and housing; a memorial marker stands near the site. Which of its two feed horns caught the signal is unknown, which is why the position has two candidate fields.
