ALMA: A look into the universe’s soul

ALMA, or “soul” in Spanish, is the name of the world’s largest telescope, located over 5,000 metres above sea level in the Atacama desert, Chile. The facility’s 66 mobile parabozlic antennas provide ALMA with a variable diameter that ranges from 150 metres to 16 kilometres. This serves as a gigantic zoom lens and allows the telescope to peer deep into the universe’s soul. ALMA will be officially inaugurated on 13 March 2013. At its heart lie fiber optic connections from HUBER+SUHNER.

Connections on the wind

Ensuring an adequate energy supply is one of the greatest technological challenges of the new century. By 2050, twice as much primary energy will be required worldwide compared to today. The finite nature of fossil fuels and the desire to reduce greenhouse gases are driving the further development of regenerative sources of energy. This not only requires new installations, but also cost savings through energy efficiency: an objective that can only be achieved through superior technical solutions. HUBER+SUHNER offers three technologies for wind energy that can help achieve these goals.

Wave 2012: From sun to street
