The ultimate viewing platform

The elongated peak of Cerro Armazones is seen here against the backdrop of the vast Atacama Desert, which bleaches into an alien blue towards the horizon. The peak of the mountain, with the sprawling view it commands, befits its future resident, the ELT, which will be the largest telescope on Earth.
