Assembly of ALMA band 1 cartridges

Electronics Technician Nelson Tabilo assembles one of the cold and warm cartridges which form part of the band 1 receivers installed on the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array (ALMA). The band 1 receivers pick up radio waves between 6 and 8.5 mm in length, the longest wavelength that ALMA is able to measure.
