Summary edit

Description
English: ESO Photo Ambassador, Babak Tafreshi captured this panoramic view of the antennas of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) under the clear sky over the Chajnantor Plateau, in the Chilean Andes.

The rosy patch prominent at the left of the image is the Carina Nebula. It lies in the constellation of Carina (The Keel), about 7500 light-years from Earth. This cloud of glowing gas and dust is the one of brightest nebulae in the sky and contains several of the brightest and most massive stars known in the Milky Way, such as Eta Carinae. For some beautiful recent images of the Carina Nebula from ESO, see eso1208, eso1145, and eso1031.

ALMA, an international astronomy facility, is a partnership of Europe, North America and East Asia in cooperation with the Republic of Chile. ALMA construction and operations are led on behalf of Europe by ESO, on behalf of North America by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), and on behalf of East Asia by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ). The Joint ALMA Observatory (JAO) provides the unified leadership and management of the construction, commissioning and operation of ALMA.
Русский: Фото-посланник ESO Бабак Тафреши (ESO Photo Ambassador Babak Tafreshi) сделал этот панорамный снимок антенн телескопа ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) в ясную ночь на плато Чахнантор в Чилийских Андах.

Розоватое пятно, выделяющееся в левой части изображения – туманность Киля (Carina Nebula) в созвездии Киля, находящаяся на расстоянии около 7500 световых лет от Земли. Это облако светящегося газа и пыли – одна из самых ярких туманностей на небе, содержащая несколько самых ярких и массивных звезд из всех известных нам в Млечном Пути, таких, например, как Эта Киля. Несколько прекрасных недавно полученных в ESO изображений туманности Киля можно также найти в релизах eso1208, eso1145 и eso1031.

ALMA (Большая Атакамская Миллиметровая / субмиллиметровая Решетка - The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) – международный астрономический инструмент, продукт партнерства ученых Европы, Северной Америки и Восточной Азии, при участии Республики Чили. Строительство и эксплуатацию ALMA ведут от Европы ESO, от Северной Америки Национальная радиоастрономическая обсерватория (NRAO), и от Восточной Азии Национальная астрономическая обсерватория Японии (NAOJ). Организационно строительство, пуско-наладочные работы и эксплуатация ALMA совместно управляются в рамках Объединенной Обсерватории ALMA (The Joint ALMA Observatory, JAO).
