BREAKING: the huge telescope at the renowned Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico has collapsed. Last week, officials said it was in danger of collapse & would be closed. Officials, like @Jenniffer2012 rushed to seek money & help to save the beloved telescope. https://t.co/xUmPzYapvr— David Begnaud (@DavidBegnaud) December 1, 2020
Man. This is depressing. One of the few good things funded by the government gone. Was even going to be decommissioned.
Puerto Rico has been in terrible financial straits ever since hurricane Maria. I had a coworker who grew up there and went back in 2018, and he said that entire neighborhoods in his hometown had just disappeared. Not damaged or replaced, just gone. The lack of support from the United States was unbelievably cruel.
