I remember first seeing this observatory in Sagan's Cosmos. It seemed like such an expression of the future. A few years ago, I saw another picture of it and I was shocked at how decayed it looked. Now it lies in wreckage. There's definitely commentary there, I think.

I'll just leave with this:

Might have been better if I had grabbed one that wasn't flipped.

Consider it the manga version of the message.
 
It's a shame, because there was still good work being done at Arecibo. I read a Reddit comment by an astronomer today that made it seem like they just didn't have the funds for proper upkeep.
