Cold dishes of the Universe
This image shows three antennas ("dishes"), part of the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array (ALMA) in a snowy setting. ALMA will be composed initially of 66 high precision antennas located on the Chajnantor plateau, 5000 metres altitude in northern Chile.
ALMA observes light emitted by cool-temperature objects in space, which permits us to unravel profound mysteries about the formation of planets and the appearance of complex molecules, including organic molecules.
