New Radar Station on Puig de Randa: The White Dome Is Gone — and What's Missing

Answer

What impact does the radar construction on Puig de Randa have on the landscape?

The replacement of the dome changes a familiar part of Mallorca's landscape, especially the silhouette seen from a distance. New masts and antennas look different from the old spherical structure and catch the light in another way. For some, the change is mainly practical; for others, it affects a place with strong visual and local identity.
