The Arecibo Observatory-- at nearly 1000' across--is the world's largest radio and radar telescope. Located in northwestern Puerto Rico, the original facility was built 40+ years ago, but it underwent major upgrades in the 1970s and in 1997-99. ... The observatory operates with a staff of about 125 and a yearly budget of about $12M, 5/6ths of which comes from NSF-astronomy and most of the remainder from NSF-atmospheres. ... This will extend the telescope's life by 20-30 years. ...
