"Because there are still so many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum in which signals from space have never been monitored, it's easy to make new scientific discoveries. Also, radio astronomy uses technologies that are relevant to the telecommunications and electronics industries, so the research can help upgrade the R & D capabilities of Taiwan's high-tech industries," says Chiueh Tzi-hong, pointing up the importance of radio astronomy.
「由於宇宙中還有太多不曾被觀測的電波波段，容易有新的科學發現；而電波與通訊、電子等產業技術相關，對台灣科技產業研發的提昇也將有所幫助，」闕志鴻指出電波天文的重要性。
