House opening theme playing while watching this

Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath

Nine night of matter Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath

Water is my eye Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire of a confession Fearless on my breath Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath

The observatory aims to gather 100 million times more light than the human eye, 13 times more light than the largest optical telescopes existing in 2014, and be able to correct for atmospheric distortion.

It has around 256 times the light gathering area of the Hubble Space Telescope and, according to the ELT's specifications, would provide images 16 times sharper than those from Hubble.

Author has a big single lens, but man will it be small compared to everything already under construction.
