The biggest UFO hunting device in the world
Nestled inside a large dome of the Big Ben clock tower and armed with a huge mirror half-pitched in football pitch, it's hard to find a suitable name for E-ELT. It was dubbed the "largest and most powerful eye" in the world today.
Astronomers really hope this giant device will help them answer the question, whether or not there is life in the universe, by finding Earth-like planets and using them. Live the living organisms.
According to the Daily Mail , the height of the dome covered the glass up to 243 feet. The giant mirror will be designed by European engineers and consists of more than 1000 pieces of hexagons assembled together. A portable windshield will be responsible for protecting the mirror from sunlight and strong winds.
Atacama Desert, Chile was chosen as the location for glass since the weather here was very dry and never rain. The sky will be clouded at least 320 nights a year, so the signal from the sent space will not be affected by the moisture inside the Earth's atmosphere. It can detect infrared light " ten times " more sensitive than previous telescopes, so astronomers will first "see" the visible galaxies At a distance of 14 billion light years from us.

Scientists hope E-ELT will help them decipher the mysteries of black holes and black energy, two mysterious and unknown powers in space, to further explain the process. the evolution of the Earth. Thanks to a series of special anti-blur, anti-blur, E-ELT images, the Hubble is 15 times brighter than the Hubble.
However, to be able to deploy the project, engineers will have to level the top of Chile's Cerro Armazones, 9900 feet high. This is the case in the case of the project approved by the 15 international partners of the Southern Observatory at its December summit.
Prior to the E-ELT, the Atacama Large Array population, including six of the world's highest observatories, 16,000 feet high, was also built in the Atacama Desert.
