Yes, the scientific community is really happy. Cornell had stopped funding Arecibo, and they've been left behind. They had some storm and earthquake damage, but now seem to be up and running. It is a fascinating place to visit, but you can't go with the ordinary tours. You have to know someone to get in to see the real equipment and talk to the people. Not as good as Upton but hey, this is the Caribbean.
