    Fortunately, the Joint ALMA Observatory (and the ALMA Partnership) is not a monoculture, so not all computers run Windows, but macOS and Linux as well. Still learning if some Windows computers for some control systems might be at risk in our observatories, and maybe other observatories…

  5. Resilient versus brittle systems:

    7.4 Mw earthquake just in the vicinity of the ALMA Observatory: after a small initial scare, things keep working as normal (we might need to look at our hydrogen maser, though).

    Single software update from a vendor that we don't contract: affects our email and messaging provider (Microsoft 365), degrades the operation of the entire observatory.

  13. Today is my second year anniversary since I joined the Joint ALMA Observatory as JAO Development System Engineer! Can't believe how quickly time flies… and we've done an extraordinary amount of work in these 2 years!

    The cyberattack sadly also affected our newsletter archive, so I cannot point to the nice entry that they published just one month after I joined.

  18. Protecting ALMA’s skies Whitepaper: a study of the risks posed by radio frequency interference (RFI) to ALMA today and in the near future, from both ground-based and space-based sources of radio emissions. The paper identifies the vulnerable points eof the observatory, and discusses and evaluates potential mitigation measures.

  22. ALMA, as part of the Event Horizon Telescope, is unveiling a new image of our Milky Way's supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*, in which strong magnetic fields can be seen…

    The most exciting part is that this hints to a jet that would be hidden from our vantage point in our galaxy… but imagine that! We might be like M87, just at a smaller scale!
