[edit] The Fall and Rise of Green Bank

This article does not seem to have a whole lot of history about the GB telescope.

I was perusing my old Astronomy magazine issues, preparatory to throwing them away, and came across a late 1980s bulletin that stated the Green Bank telescope had collapsed. A month or two later, Congress was reported to have provided funding to help rebuild. So, perhaps this article could be updated with more information about that? I didn't think to keep those articles because I expected to find the information on-line. GBC 16:39, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Largest moving structure?

I've heard that the GBT is the largest moving structure in the world. Can't prove this wrong yet. Solarapex 05:09, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
