GUIYANG, July 28 (Xinhua) -- One can accurately say a mid-summer carnival is in town! China's "Village Super League" semi-finals starting on Friday may promise even more excitement than the Women's World Cup, or the Universiade. At least so believe the locals in Rongjiang, a county in southwest China's Guizhou Province, where 80 percent of the residents are members of ethnic minority groups.
GUIYANG, July 27 (Xinhua) -- Five intelligent robot systems and platforms for the maintenance of China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), the world's largest single-dish radio telescope, have passed inspection and can be put into use, local authorities said on Wednesday. The intelligent robots will be mainly used in testing of the supporting cables and pulleys of FAST's feed, the automatic maintenance of its actuators and laser targets on the reflector, the disassembling and installation of feed receivers, the monitoring of radio interference, and the all-weather measurement of its 30-tonne feed cabin.
