ALMA explained

The European ARC network presents a series of 3-min videos with the purpose of introducing and explaining ALMA and basic interferometry principles to non-experts. The videos have been prepared by experts from the ESO ARC and the ARC nodes in Europe. The first release includes 9 videos and more videos will come with time. New additions will be regularly advertised on the European ARC and ARC network social media as well as the ALMA newsletter. Enjoy the videos and share them with your friends, colleagues or students. Any video or parts of the videos can be used with proper credits without contacting us.
