Visits to LIGO and FAST

Just published two picture galleries from recent visits to the LIGO Livingston Gravational Wave Observatory in Louisiana, USA and to the FAST 500m Radio Telescope in Guizhou, China. During both trips we were able to visit some of the surroundings. Enjoy! Here you find more information on LIGO and FAST.
