ALMA ALMA Observatory📡 has a cool new resource for their visitor center in Chile! This model of ALMA's Array Operations Site (AOS) is 3D printed and connected to a mini computer. The model antennas can be moved and different images will appear on screen according to the configuration.
Congratulations to the international partnerships and staff that make ALMA possible. The team just hit a milestone, with a record-breaking 3,810 hours of successful scientific observations so far this cycle! ALMA Observatory📡
