Arecibo radio telescope

The site of the Arecibo Observatory is home to a 305 m diameter radio telescope, the largest single-aperture telescope in the world. May know the characteristic "bowl" from films, such as the James Bond movie GoldenEye and in the film Contact or the "X-Files" episode "Little Green Men".
