's World's largest eye on the sky
The hint is in the name of this telescope because it is extremely large! It is also called 'the world's largest eye on the sky' and is as big as a football stadium. It will be installed in northern Chile, atop Cerro Armazones, at an altitude of 3 km! It is expected to be operational by 2027. The fact that the construction of the telescope faces many obstacles is an understatement. The 'eye' of the telescope consists of, among other things, 798 hexagonal mirrors measuring 1.4 meters in size and 5 centimeters thick, designed by VDL ETG Projects
