At the ALMA Operations Support Facility (OSF) which is located in a remote area, it is important to create recreational facilities to provide distractions. Currently, construction of indoor sports facilities such as billiard and table tennis, home theater, and outdoor tennis court is underway. The picture shows the workers trying to put up a net in the tennis court built on the leveled ground. As there is no fence around the tennis court at this moment, it might be a good exercise only to go and retrieve a ball thrown over the court.
