The Arecibo Antenna
批評家のレビュー
“With memoir elements, Helias Doundoulakis’s The Arecibo Antenna is the exciting history of the construction of the world’s most powerful radio telescope. The Arecibo Antenna is a humane account of the people behind an engineering marvel.” (Matt Benzing, Foreword/Clarion Review)
“Doundoulakis carefully recounts the powerful antenna’s path from its germ of an idea in the mid-20th century to its construction in a remote jungle just outside Arecibo, Puerto Rico. History books are often dry and pedantic, but Doundoulakis delivers an engaging writing style that will please physics enthusiasts and non-scientific readers alike. In sum, this is a well-constructed, accessible read, and a worthy addition to the Arecibo antenna’s legacy.” (BlueInk Review)
“A comprehensive insider’s history of a cutting-edge radio telescope. The text is admirably descriptive, and its density of information is likely to appeal most to readers who are already familiar with the science of astronomy. A scholarly presentation of an architectural wonder.” (Kirkus Reviews)
あらすじ・解説
The Arecibo Radio Telescope (Arecibo) has made amazing findings that would otherwise have remained undiscovered. Yet, Arecibo’s inception is shrouded in mystery: unknown is the true story behind its creation, secret for all these years. Until now.
In his final book, Helias Doundoulakis demystifies Arecibo for the novice, from dreams to drawings. The chronological account of the iconic telescope is made plain for all to see, which spanned six decades. Read how his brother, George Doundoulakis, undertook its conception and fielding, finally winning patent rights for his brother Helias, CIA director William Casey, and Gus Michalos. Follow the inseparable brothers on their journey of courage, inspiration, and brilliance that advanced the design of Arecibo and inspired generations of space scientists for years to come.
