Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The incomparable view offered by Comet C/2006 P1 (McNaught), which reached its perihelion in January 2007, unexpectedly becoming the brightest comet in the previous 40 years. This close-up was taken from the ALMA Operation Support Facility (OSF), located at 2900 m altitude on the road to Chajnantor. ALMA, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, is the largest astronomical project in existence, located on the Chilean Andes, some 50 km away from San Pedro de Atacama.
