Deborah Reber, Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul.
In the late 1940s, a Californian named John Reber set out to reinvent the physical geography of the whole
San Francisco Bay Area.
Reber sold his telescope to the National Bureau of Standards,
and it was erected on a turntable at their field station in Sterling, Virginia.
Reber's radio telescope was considerably more advanced than Jansky's,
and consisted of a parabolic sheet metal dish 9 meters in diameter, focusing to a radio receiver 8 meters above the dish.
