To avoid these issues, the largest radio telescopes are built into natural features in the terrain.
Arecibo and FAST, for example, were built in natural, dish-shaped sinkholes. .
"These craters seem like natural places to put this dish-shaped telescope because the crater also looks like a bowl."Â Â .To find a crater candidate, Bandyopadhyay and his team combed over detailed pictures taken by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and discovered more than 80,000 suitable craters on the far side of the moon.The antenna would be built on Earth in the form of a large, but extremely lightweight net-like structure made of conductive aluminum wire.Once launched, the antenna would be carried to the moon and land on the floor of the crater into which it would be installed.to the lander and then pull lift wires that will connect to the lander sitting at the crater floor," Bandyopadhyay said.
Ultimately the net-like antenna would be suspended over the crater floor, looking a little like a dish-shaped spider web.  .
