Currently there are four antennas at the Operations Support Facility (OSF). This picture shows the scenery seen from the window of the control room in a container. The one at the back is the ACA #1 and the other in front is ACA #3. The white antennas reflecting the sunlight in the desert are shining dazzlingly. George Kosugi, ALMA-J Computing Team Leader, says that he can enjoy the high-speed antenna operation from the control room just like moving a big robot by remote control [photographed on October 15, 2007].
