The radio-telescope.

The radio-telescopes are the great sized constructions. The most spread type of the radio-telescope is a construction the basic element of which is a whole metallic mirror of a parabolic form. The mirror reflects the radiowaves falling on it, so they gather near the focus and are able to be caught by the special unit- irradiator. Then the signal is strengthened and changed into the form convenient for a registration and analysis. The storage and the dates processing is made with the computers. The more the reflecting surface the higher the sensitivity of the radio-telescope.
