An impressive place where the biggest eye on the universe will carry out state-of-the-art astronomy. I really enjoyed the visit led by a French Engineer for our group. Very detailed explanations. Also, the landscape around us is even more outstanding. It looks rather like a Mars-scape. Having such a telescope observing from such a place is hardly beliviable! Let's hope we could have it by 2025!
