Two 500kW diesel engines drive this 28-wheeled truck up mountains as it carries antennae to observe the stars.

That’s all well and good, but to my unscientific, raised-in-the-80’s eye, a bright yellow, 65.5-foot long truck that clocks in at 130 tons and can carry practically its own weight up some of the world’s tallest mountains screams to be remade into a transforming robot and featured in a movie.
