3 November 2014 - Large Millimeter Array

In the remote and forbidding Atacama desert in Chile, time passes slowly and so, by special relativity, distance becomes longer. That’s why the radio telescope there is called the Atacama Large Millimeter Array. In fact, a “large millimeter” measures up to 9.6 regular millimeters. You see? Science is easy to understand if people just make the effort to explain it properly.
