Really nice to see this! In some sense, the ngVLA is a cousin on both sides of ALMA and SKAO, my current, and former observatory: ngVLA is made by NRAO, which is one of the members of the ALMA Partnership, but it works at frequencies more similar to those in SKAO (specially SKAO Mid), and with similar technologies.

And there is one more thing that brings ngVLA, ALMA, and SKAO together: the computational requirements which will require moving away from the current CASA-based pipeline into a more mature, and potentially common for ALMA and ngVLA, with some underlying algorithms and data formats also shared with SKAO, the Radio Astronomy Data Processing System (RADPS).

Gänsehaut: Lana Del Rey und David Arnold mit dem James-Bond-Titelsong „First Light“ zum neuen Game. Wer jetzt aber denkt: „Ja, was interessieren mich Spiele?!“ -> Der Song ist Classic Bond durch und durch. Und David Arnold hat ja bereits für fünf Bond-Filme der Brosnan- und Craig-Äras die Musiken geschrieben.
