Mounted image 102: An ALMA antenna on Chajnantor
{"Image ImageDescription": "One of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA)   antennas thrusts to the sky on the Chajnantor plain of the Chilean   Andes, 5000 m above sea level. ALMA is the  largest ground-based astronomy project in existence, and  will be comprised of a giant array  of  12-m submillimetre quality antennas, with baselines of several   kilometres. An additional, compact array of 7-m and 12-m antennas will   complement the main array. Construction of ALMA started in 2003 and will   be completed in 2012. The ALMA project is an international   collaboration between Europe, East Asia and North America in cooperation   with the Republic of Chile. This image is available as a mounted image in the ESOshop.", "Image Artist": "Iztok Boncina"}
