An ACA (Atacama Compact Array) 12-m Antenna, which was delivered to JAO (Joint ALMA Observatory) as the first antenna on 2008 December 19, was moved out from the Japanese erection area. We feel a kind of lost, as this is one of the four antennas that were installed together. However, the antenna on the transporter looked majestic while being transported to the JAO area. The picture shows the antenna on the transporter. Messages from staff members are stuck to the front of the antenna.
