IT’S HAPPENING! The largest space telescope in history is about to blow our minds

A telescope with ’Giant’ in its title, got to be something. We are referring to The Giant Magellan Telescope, the biggest Gregorian optical infrared telescope ever built. It features seven of the largest mirrors in the world and offers the greatest field of view of the Universe. The telescope is under construction in Las Campanas Peak at the southern edge of Chile’s Atacama Desert. A new $205 million cash infusion has been received for the Giant Magellan Telescope. The money, which will be used to build the enormous 12-story telescope building is said to be one of the greatest fundraising rounds for the telescope since its creation. making It have four times the power of the James Webb Space Telescope once it is complete. The Giant Magellan Telescope will have four times the spatial resolution and ten times the light collecting area of the James Webb Space Telescope, respectively (10 times the resolution of the Hubble Space Telescope). According to the Giant Magellan Telescope Organization, during the past few years, the telescope’s construction has made substantial progress. The Giant Magellan Telescope is regarded as the space exploration of the future. The James Webb Space Telescope, which recently wowed the world with its astounding resolution, will be outclassed by this telescope, which will use seven of the largest mirrors in the world to create the most detailed images of the Universe ever captured. The primary mirror array is made up of seven mirrors with an diameter and weighs 18 metric tonnes. However, the Giant Magellan Telescope will advance things. The 368 square meter total light collection area will provide pictures crisp enough to distinguish the flame carved on a cent from over 99 miles (160 kilometers) away. The telescope mount is 65 meters long, 39 meters tall, and 2,100 tonnes in weight. It can rotate completely in less than three minutes. With the greatest field of vision of any telescope, seven adaptive secondary mirrors may reconfigure the two millimeter-thick surface 2,000 times per second to compensate for the optical blurring impact of the Earth’s atmosphere. In other words, the telescope is poised to be a technological wonder and establish a new standard for space observation. The Giant Magellan Telescope Organization claims that the JWST will benefit greatly from the “exceptional angular resolution, paired with novel spectrographs and high contrast cameras“ of the GMT.
