Mas Observatorio
Can you guess which one is the astrophysicist?
6.5m mirror
mechanism for aiming the mirror
the "instrument" (a spectrograph developed by my cousin Gus); it collects light and separates it into different wavlengths
the man and his machine
the control room (there are a total of twenty monitors in the room, some of which are used for data analysis, but most of which are used to control the telescope itself; the large mirror has a honeycomb structure, beneath each section of which is an adjustable support system used to adjust the shape of the mirror to focus the light accurately)
