The current work is expected to be completed in 2025.
last December. Scientists then pinged signals off the moon to verify the feasibility of the system and its key technologies.A new phase is now underway to build 25 radar antennas, each with a diameter of 98 feet . The work is expected to be completed in 2025.
"After construction in the second phase is completed, we will be able to observe an asteroid with a diameter of only dozens of meters 10 million kilometers [6.2 million miles] away. For example, what it is composed of, what is its rotation speed and what is the change in its orbit. These can be observed with the second phase under certain conditions," said Zeng Tao, deputy director of the Radar Technology Research Institute under the Beijing Institute of Technology.
A third phase will then be initiated to expand Fuyan's detection range to 90 million miles . The project uses multiple smaller arrays to simulate a larger aperture system to allow deep-space detection.
