Returning to the Universe by

One last shot of the ACE HIGH array at Stenigot.

The dishes dont look particularly big, until you climb on top of them and the concavity / huge open sky just hits you. Of the four, just one seems to have been reserved for graffiti and tagging.

It struck me as satisfyingly ironic that a facility, which for years relayed microwave communications traffic across the troposhere, is now sending out quite a different message into the sky. Though quite what any otherwordly visitors might make of the words ‘suck my nips’ remains to be seen…
