💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: ❄️🏜️ In August rare #winter #storms blanketed #Chile’s #Atacama #Desert in #snow, forcing #ALMA and other observatories to suspend operations and triggering flash #floods and mudflows.

A cutoff low paired with strengthening #ElNiño drove the #rain, flooding #Taltal with nearly 10x its annual average in three days.

The video, illuminated by the low-lying sun, shows not only the unusual #snow ❄️ cover but also the dense clouds, which are extremely rare in one of the driest places on Earth. The observatories are built there precisely because the dry conditions offer the best possible prerequisites for #astronomical observations https://www.heise.de/en/news/Extremely-Large-Telescope-after-snowstorm-Images-show-white-Atacama-Desert-11435246.html

#ELT #ESO #Atacama #Chile

Au mois d’août, l’Atacama (Chili) a connu des chutes de neige, un phénomène très inhabituel dans cette région parmi les plus arides du monde. Si le sommet du volcan Licancabur (ici à gauche) est parfois coiffé d’un chapeau blanc, il est fort rare que la neige descende jusqu’à son pied, comme sur cette image satellite capturée le 14 août dernier.
 Ce manteau blanc souligne les « pressure ridges » à la surface des coulées de lave visqueuse qui rayonnent depuis le sommet. Ces structures en arc de cercle se forment perpendiculairement à l’écoulement. Leur morphologie rappelle celle des ogives glaciaires, même si le processus de genèse est différent.

Chile has its own Mars and it is called the Atacama Desert.

This month, the receiver developed by our institute will be delivered to the APEX radio telescope in the Chilean #Atacama desert. APEX was built by the MPIfR, the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and the Onsala Space Observatory (OSO).

Did you know that APEX was involved in the first image of a black hole? From 2009 APEX was equipped for #VLBI. In 2017 came the first image, based on four petabytes of data delivered to Bonn and correlated there.
