Italian Minister of University and Research visits ELT site
Anna Maria Bernini, the Italian Minister of University and Research, and a small delegation have completed a visit to ESO’s Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) in Chile’s Atacama Desert. The group included Valeria Biagiotti, Italy’s Ambassador to Chile, and Roberto Ragazzoni, President of the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) and ESO Council Member. During the visit, the Minister and her delegation learnt about ESO’s groundbreaking facilities and saw first-hand the progress at Cerro Armazones, where the ELT is being constructed.
On 12 March, ESO’s Director General Xavier Barcons and ELT Programme Manager Roberto Tamai welcomed Minister Bernini — who travelled to Chile for the inauguration of the country’s new President — and briefed the visitors on ESO’s mission and operations. The delegation then toured the ELT site, learning about the ‘world’s biggest eye on the sky’ and Italy’s substantial contributions to the project. Later, they visited the future southern-hemisphere site of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory, located just a few kilometres from the ELT.
Italy, an ESO Member State since 1982, has played a pivotal role in many of the organisation’s technological and scientific achievements. For example, several current and future instruments operating on ESO telescopes were built by consortia led by INAF institutes. Italy also maintains a leading role in the ELT: a consortium of Italian companies is currently constructing the dome and telescope structure, representing the largest ground-based astronomy contract ever awarded. The direct economic return to Italian companies and institutions participating in ESO projects exceeded 360 million EUR over the 2008-2025 period.
