The Dwingeloo Complex

| Description: | Since it is easy to download an ASTRON/JIVE Daily Image from the archive (just right-click on it), this is done by many people, for instance to add some extra cachet to their presentations. We expect that this recent aerial picture of the two sister institutes in the trackless forest of Dwingeloo will be used frequently. The picture was taken in late 2013, just after the newly refurbished dish of the 25m telescope was hoisted back into place. It has now started its second career as a national monument and outreach telescope. Seen from above, the recent additions to the building complex stand out rather clearly by the color of the roof. They separate the somewhat less flamboyant R&D lab (left) and the Astronomy building (right), but also provide the bridges between them. For more images, covering the last half century or so, just press the Archive button at the top of the page to browse the AJDI archive. You will be surprised. |
