      That telescope has already been destroyed by nature, it was a whole thing. Very sad.

        Yes, but wasn’t referring to that one. The one in the beginning at severneya that GoldenEye hit

          Oh man, I forgot about that. But that was the same movie, right? Aracebo was in the climax I think?

            It was, you’re right. I forgot about that. Bond finishes off 006 there.

    I’m always disappointed when they don’t leave big dishes like this to decay as a basin. Im sure its because they were hoping to resume use of it at some point, but still

    It would be lovely to have left it to fill in, if its just going to slowly degrade and collapse anyway, it would become a little oasis for birds and lizards and such for a while, until enough holes form to leak everything out.

      I doubted they’d hold more than a small puddle. Some of them aren’t even solid.

    I’ve dreamt of buying an old telescope like this and making it my home since I was a kid, but I’m obviously very aware that’ll forever stay a dream.

    Though I did do it in Lay of the Land so the dream kinda came true virtually.
