ESO's Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) Construction on Cerro Armazones in Chile

[@dyosorkan]

I remember watching live the very begining of it's construction about 9 years ago, the explosion of the top of Cerro Armazones. Watching your shots of the construction is amazing, I can't wait for the ELT to get it's first light !

Can't wait until this thing is built, imagine all the things we'll discover, I hope to see it in person one day.

I have been watching the video many times. Absolutely fantastic. Awesome. Gerhard Hüdepohl has just released a stunning book about the VLT, the Very Large Telescope, which 2 me is the best book ever published regarding cutting edge telescope technology. Unsurpassable. Ex astris scientia. Christian

If there had been a new football stadium, it would have been finished long ago.
