    【The 500-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) of the National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, known as "China's Sky Eye", has been approved by 14 countries outside China since it was officially opened to global astronomers at the end of March 2021.
    of 27 international observation applications

    The Chinese Academy of Sciences held its first press conference in 2022 in Beijing on January 5.
    It introduced the high-quality open operation of the "China Sky Eye", a major power device, and a series of important scientific research progress, and disclosed the application for international observation
    .

     

    The National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said that in the past two years since "China Sky Eye" passed the national acceptance inspection on January 11, 2020, the station has made every effort to organize the high-quality open operation of "China Sky Eye", and established a scientific committee, a time allocation committee and a user committee at the first time.
    , make overall planning of scientific directions, select major projects, formulate data open policies, allocate observation time, etc.
    , collect and select "Drift Scanning Multi-Scientific Target Simultaneous Sky Survey", "Fast Radio Burst Search and Multi-band Observation", "Galactic Surface Pulsar Sky Survey" "M31 Neutral Hydrogen Imaging and Pulsar Search" and "China Pulsar Timing Array" and other five priority major projects have achieved a series of important results
    .

     

    On March 31, 2021, "China Sky Eye" was officially opened to the world for sharing, collecting observation applications from astronomers around the world, demonstrating the concept of cooperation between Chinese scientists and the international scientific community
    .
    This solicitation received a total of 7,216 hours of observation applications from different countries, and finally 27 international observation applications from 14 countries (excluding China) were approved, and scientific observations will be launched in August 2021
    .

     

      This series of work and achievements show that "China Sky Eye" has become a powerful tool for observing the sky in the field of medium and low frequency radio astronomy, and has entered a new stage of "more achievements" and "good results"
    .
    "China Sky Eye" is a major national scientific and technological infrastructure built, commissioned, operated and managed by the National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
    It is also the largest and most sensitive single-aperture radio telescope in the world
    .
    "China Sky Eye" has discovered about 500 pulsars so far, and it has become the world's most efficient astronomical device for pulsar discovery since its operation
    .

     

      In recent years, China's scientific and technological level has continued to grow and has gradually entered the ranks of powerful countries
    .
    With the continuous improvement of national comprehensive strength and scientific and technological level, more and more countries have recognized our strength, and there are more and more interactions and cooperation with countries in the field of scientific research
    .

     

      However, as the cornerstone of scientific researchThe instrumentation industry is still slightly lacking
    .
    China's instrumentation industry has always been at the middle and low-end development level, and the scientific and technological content is not high.
    Although there are many scientific research instruments, the proportion is relatively low, and the scientific and technological content is not enough
    .
    It is worth mentioning that with the introduction of concepts such as "smart manufacturing" and "industrial Internet", China's emphasis on the instrumentation industry, especially the instrumentation industry, has been increasing
    .

     
    Instrumentation
      With the continuous improvement of China's scientific research strength, it is believed that there will be more and more instruments similar to "China's Sky Eye", and events that have received enthusiastic attention from relevant fields in various countries will also continue to increase.
    win-win
