Scientists want giant ‘liquid mirror’ telescope on moon

The video discusses a plan to build a 100-meter-wide liquid mirror on the moon's surface. This innovative telescope could capture light from ancient cosmic objects. Liquid mirrors are more efficient and cost-effective than traditional glass mirrors. They require constant rotation to form a perfect parabola, ideal for reflecting light. The project faces challenges, such as finding suitable liquids that won't freeze in the moon's cold temperatures.
