The correct answer is

China

This question asks which country launched the 'Three Gorges Antarctic Eye' telescope in April 2025.

In April 2025, China deployed the Three Gorges Antarctic Eye, a terahertz-band observation telescope, in Antarctica.

The instrument is designed to study the atmosphere and space environment, monitoring water vapour and space-weather conditions from the exceptionally clear, dry polar skies.

Antarctica's cold, stable and low-humidity atmosphere makes it one of the best natural sites on Earth for terahertz and infrared astronomy, which is why the telescope was placed there.

The project reflects China's expanding scientific presence in the polar regions through its Antarctic research stations.

Russia, India and the United States all run Antarctic research programmes but were not credited with this particular telescope launch.

Hence the correct answer is China.
