Do you want to feel small? Check out this drone video of ESO's Extremely Large Telescope. Look how tiny those engineers look compared to the massive cell that will hold the #ELT 39 m mirror! 1/

Sit back & enjoy this time-lapse showing the dome of ESO’s #ELT from sunset on 3 April 2024 to sunrise the following day.
Appearing overhead are: the Milky Way band, the Magellanic Clouds and the Moon. 🌌🌀🌕

2/ With the dome’s steel skeleton complete, a protective insulated cladding is now being applied over it — the dark blue panels seen above.

3/ M5 will adjust its position 10 times/second 🤯
Together with M4, this will allow ESO's ELT to take extremely sharp images by correcting perturbations caused by telescope mechanisms, wind vibrations & atmospheric turbulence.

📣 Great news: METIS — one of the instruments of ESO’s upcoming #ELT — has passed its Final Design Review!
This marks the exciting transition from METIS being described in documents to being constructed and tested. 1/

🎊 Shiny new surface for the first segments of world’s largest telescope mirror!
An ESO team has added a shiny surface to the first segments of the 798 ones that will make up the ELT primary mirror. 1/

2/ The video overlooks Cerro Armazones in the Chilean Atacama Desert over the course of 2023, as the dome is pieced together in smooth choreography. 🏗️

It's windy outside, close the door — err, sorry, the dome!
The #ELT's dome will shelter the telescope in windy conditions and protect its optics. We just started installing insulating aluminium cladding –– a new step towards the dome's completion!

#ELTprogress After a journey of more than 10,000 km by sea 🚢 and by land 🚛, the first 18 segments of the main mirror of ESO's #ELT have arrived at our #Paranal Observatory in Chile from Europe. 🏁
Experience the last leg of their epic trip! 👇 1/

3/ And then, of course, there's our #ELT!
Under construction in the Chilean Atacama Desert, it is planned to start operating later this decade. With its 39m mirror, it will be the world's #BiggestEyeOnTheSky 👁️ 🌌

Have you heard? Just a few days ago, something was buried on one of the walls of our Extremely Large Telescope #ELT.
What does it contain? 🧐

#ELTprogress Engineers are testing the cell that will hold the ELT's secondary mirror
The cell ensures the mirror’s shape to a precision of less than the size of a virus & its position to an accuracy of a human hair’s width 🤯 1/
#ELTprogress The world's largest telescope dome is taking shape! 😮
The 88 metres in diameter & nearly 80 metres in height give the dome a footprint ~ equivalent to that of a football pitch.

#ELTProgress 👇View from the construction site of our ELT. Now imagine a dome 80 metres high with a diameter of about 88 metres, housing a giant 39-metre mirror. This will give the telescope a footprint roughly equivalent to that of a football pitch. #BiggestEyeOnTheSky
2/ M4, the fourth mirror in the light path of the telescope, can change shape quickly and very precisely, and is a key part of the ELT’s adaptive optics system. #ELTprogress
El Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). El telescopio, ubicado en Cerro Armazones cerca del Observatorio Paranal en el norte de Chile, comenzará a operar a finales de esta década. #BiggestEyeOnTheSky #ELTprogress
