China and India will become partners in space research and build the largest astronomical telescope

China and India are preparing to become partners in space research. The two countries have begun planning to build the largest astronomical telescope in the world in Hawaii in the United States in the next decade. As early as 2009, China became an observer of this project and India joined the following year. Now both countries have become partners in this project.

China and India will invest more than 100 million U.S. dollars each to build a telescope with a diameter of more than 30 meters on the Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii. The two countries will also share the observation time. After the completion of the telescope will be the world's largest and most advanced telescope equipment, and it has become a landmark masterpiece of the two countries' space cooperation.

The telescope contains a 30-meter living mirror, nearly 100 feet in length, and more than all today's telescopes. Remote telescopes are very helpful for research. In the future, we can get a good understanding of the planet’s origins, black holes, and even dark matter and dark energy. China hopes to discover astronomy vigorously. If it is successfully built, China’s position in this area will steadily increase and it will also make a great contribution to the world.
