The radio telescopes play a crucial role in astrophysical observations; hence it is necessary to discuss about the significance, structure, and applications of radio telescope and analyse the difference between the state-of-art radio telescopes (FAST and SKA) based on present information. Specifically, the background and present conditions as well as the history of radio telescopes will be introduced initially. Subsequently, the significance of radio telescope will be explained, including structure and application of radio telescopes. Subsequently, the doubts on FAST and SKA and strengths of them will be clarified. Eventually, the problems and limitations about radio telescope and the future prospect will be discussed. Overall, these results shed light on offering suggestions for future development of galaxy and cosmology observations.
