Construction of the ELT in Chile is underway

The Armazones crater, where the Extremely Large Telescope is being built, is perfectly placed for pristine views of the night sky. Construction of the ELT is underway at Chile, 2019. The ELT is motivated by a wide rande of scientific challenges encountered by modern astronomy, and scientists hope its observations will uncover mysteries of the Universe. On this view, the constriction site falls into the twilight colours while anticrepuscular rays appears in the sky.
