Abstract
FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope) will become the largest single dish ever built in the world. The feasibility of FAST concept, including observatory location, active reflector and feed support has been proven by theoretical analysis and experiments. Results of study indicate that this project is ready to move on to preliminary design. In order to verify the design idea and the key technologies of FAST, the 5-meter experiment model, the 50-m experiment mode and the active reflector model have been designed and constructed. The experiment shows that the feasibility of FAST is been proven by theoretical analysis and experiments.
