News from my point of view.
ALMA Test Facility during Bon Jovi video taping.
ESO Council unanimously approved the
participation of ESO as a 50% partner in the ALMA project. This is an
important milestone that solidifies the transition to construction. You will
recall the NSF National Science Board already approved the use of the
current fiscal year ALMA funds to start construction on the US side. Later
this summer, the NSB will vote on approval for the remaining years of ALMA
construction.
