Telescope Race Narrows: GMT & ELT Vie for Stargazing Supremacy
The race to construct the next generation of super-large ground telescopes has narrowed, with the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) and the European Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) emerging as frontrunners amidst challenges faced by the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) in Hawaii. These ambitious projects represent a significant leap in light-gathering capabilities, promising unprecedented insights into the universe's origins, though they face funding hurdles and local opposition.
