FAST: Its Scientific Achievements and Prospects

Abstract

FAST is the largest single-dish radio telescope in the world. The characteristics of FAST are presented and analyzed in the context of the parameter space to show how FAST science achievements are affected. We summarize the scientific achievements of FAST and discuss its future science based on the new parts of the parameter space that can be explored by FAST.

The parameter space is emphasized. Published in The Innovation. With GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT and PUBLIC SUMMARY
