The hexacopter

This strange looking contraption is a hexacopter, installed with a camera, which can be used for radio-controlled aerial cinematography and photography. In the background the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) sprawls out across the Chajnantor Plateau in Chile soon to be photographed from above.
