ACCRA Cheap Air Presto , April 8 (Xinhua) -- Ghana failed to win the bid to host the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) as leaders of the Confederation of African (CAF) settled on Gabon on Wednesday.

Ghana was confident of hosting Africa's biggest soccer tournament for the second time in nine years but was unable to make the mark after Gabon swept a majority of the CAF executive committee votes to annex the right.

Ghana hosted the 2008 tournament and placed third after beating neighbors Ivory Coast.

Libya was billed to host the competition but later withdrew due to the unstable security situation in the North African country.

Gabon co-hosted the 2012 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations with neighbors, Equatorial Guinea.

The 2015 AFCON was held in Equatorial Guinea and won by Ivory Coast after defeating the Black Stars of Ghana 9-8 on penalties.

BEIJING, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), the world's largest radio telescope, celebrated its first anniversary on Monday, but its founding father was not there to enjoy the moment.

Nan Rendong Air Presto Sale , chief scientist of the FAST project, died from lung cancer at the age of 72, just 10 days before the celebration.

He underwent surgery after being diagnosed with the disease two years ago. As soon as he was discharged from hospital, Nan was moved to a house on the outskirts of Beijing where he could grow flowers and walk his dog.

However, the old man could not bear such an idle life, describing it as like "being in jail." Nan continued his work despite illness Air Presto Ultra Breathe , invoking the spirit of his own personal motto: "Refuse to be average."

EXPLORING THE UNIVERSE

The astronomer was known to often look up at the starlit sky in the dead of night, pondering life's big questions. Who are we? Where are we from? Are we alone in the universe?

This curiosity as well as his patriotism prompted Nan to bid farewell to the good salary and world-class research environment he had while working as a visiting professor at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.

Nan had been in charge of FAST since 1994, leading the research team to work around the clock, pouring all his energy into the project.

He aimed to build the largest super-sensitive "ear" of Earth to seek distant sounds in the universe and decode cosmic messages.

The project, once viewed by many as an impossible mission, completed its main structure installation -- a 4 Air Presto Ultra Flyknit ,450-panel reflector as large as 30 football pitches -- last year.

It is capable of enlarging and searching for sun-like stars, using technology five times more powerful than what was previously available. It can receive electromagnetic signals from 10 billion light-years away, and perhaps bring the search for extraterrestrial life closer to what would be an astonishing conclusion.

ARDUOUS TASK

The site selection was the most important yet challenging work at the initial stage of the project. Nan began site surveying in 1994, including geo-morphological features, climate, engineering environment and radio interference.

After trudging on rugged mountains for thousands upon thousands of miles in southeast China over more than 10 years Air Presto Ultra , Nan finally found the ideal site, a karst valley deep in mountainous Guizhou Province.

With little mature technology to refer to, Nan experienced numerous technical difficulties.

The team overcame more than a hundred failures to solve a cable-net problem, with Nan always the first to conduct any manned trials during the building process.

"The building of FAST is not driven by economic interests, but the human desire for innovation and exploration," Nan said. "You will always make unexpected gains during scientific adventures."

The radio telescope will be the global leader for the next 10 to 20 years Air Presto Mens , according to Zheng Xiaonian, deputy head of the Chinese Academy of Sciences National Astronomical Observation.

The man behind this unprecedented project, though mourned by families, students and colleagues, wished for his funeral to be simple, with no event held.

"Attracted by its mystery and glory Air Presto Womens , we can go beyond mediocrity and step into the vast beautiful universe," Nan wrote.
