	VISTA
		VISTA will become part of ESO's Cerro Paranal Observatory at an altitude of 2635m, in the Atacama Desert in Chile.
		VISTA will be capable of supporting a huge variety of projects from solar-system studies to cosmology.
		When it is completed in 2006 it will be the world’s largest telescope dedicated to ground based survey work.

		Additional ground-based instruments such as the CLOVER array and South Pole Telescope in Antarctica and the Atacama Cosmology Telescope in Chile will provide additional data not available from satellite observations, possibly including B-mode polarization component.
		Its detectors got a trial run at the Antarctic Viper telescope as ACBAR (Arcminute Cosmology Bolometer Array Receiver) experiment – which has produced the most precise measurements at small angular scales to date – and at the Archeops balloon telescope.
		Arcminute Cosmology Bolometer Array Receiver - measured intermediate and small scale fluctuations with improved precision

	MSN Encarta - Telescope
		Telescopes are the fundamental research instruments that enable astronomers to tackle scientific questions about the birth of the universe ( see Big Bang Theory ; Cosmology); the emergence of structure in the early universe; the formation and evolution of stars, galaxies, and planetary systems; and the conditions for the emergence of life itself.
		In 2001 the European Southern Observatory opened the largest optical interferometer, the Very Large Telescope (VLT), in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile.
		Telescope, device that permits distant and faint objects to be viewed as if they were much brighter and closer to the observer.
