Description:In October 2008, the first quadrant of the ALMA bilateral correlator, which could serve 16 antenna stations, is being wired for duty at the AOS Technical Building at the 16,500 foot site. Thirteen hundred cables were installed and tested in the oxygenated correlator room of the building; automated software detected two interchanged cables, which were quickly corrected. In Charlottesville, testing was ongoing on the correlator's second quadrant, which was installed in 2009 and could serve 32 antenna stations, and the third quadrant was being assembled.

Description:This is a view from the ALMA high site at 5000 meters elevation. The view looks north towards Cerro Toco, an extinct stratovolcano that is part of a larger volcanic system called the Purico Complex. The complex last erupted 1.3 million years ago. The shiny object at the dark base of the hill is a modified ALMA prototype telescope called the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment APEX, a collaboration between Max Planck Institut fr Radioastronomie, Onsala Space Observatory, and the European Southern Observatory. The telescope was manufactured by Vertex Antennentechnik in Duisburg, Germany and saw first light in July 2005. [show more]
