Thanks, Pops and Rich. This is one of the antennas of the satellite station Raisting (near Munich, Bavaria). The site is surrounded by an idyllic landscape. The 18 parabolic dishes measure between 21 and 96 ft. in diameter. In the seventies, Raisting was part of the worldwide network of tracking stations for Project Apollo. -Gerald

I love the contrast of the ultra high tech radio telescope and the low tech tractor
