The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is an international astronomy project that consists of an astronomical interferometer formed from an array of radio telescopes, located at Llano de Chajnantor Observatory in the Atacama desert in northern Chile. The telescope is expected to revolutionise modern astronomy by providing an insight on star formation in the early universe and imaging local star and planet formation in great detail. With a cost in excess of 1 billion US dollars, it is the most ambitious ground-based telescope currently under construction.
