On May 26, another 12-m antenna was transported from OSF (2900 m asl) to AOS (5000 m asl). This brought the total number of the antennas at AOS to fourteen. Only two antennas are now left to reach 16, the total number of antennas that will be used for the Early Science Operation scheduled from the end of September. Construction of ALMA is well under way.
