Connecting Paranal to the World

Brochure explains how a new communications system brings ESO telescopes closer to Europe

22. Oktober 2010

ESO and its partners in an international consortium are in the final stages of building EVALSO [1], a new data infrastructure in Chile. This brochure explains the why, the where and the how — why this fast data link is necessary, where it is located, and how the cutting-edge technology will make a big difference for operations at ESO and its partner institutions.

The brochure is available for download in PDF format.
