The Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) is one of three next-generation, ground-based telescopes currently under construction. These “Extremely Large Telescopes” will achieve revolutionary new levels of clarity and sensitivity for studying all astronomical sources—from exoplanets outside our solar system, to the first stars and galaxies that formed in the universe, to the evolution of the universe itself. Dr. Bernstein will describe how the Giant Magellan is being designed to achieve these feats; the cutting-edge technology that will enable its performance; and the myriad scientific discoveries that await. Carnegie Science has played a foundational role in the creation of the GMT, which is now under construction at the Carnegie’s Las Campanas Observatory in Chile. When completed, the GMT will enable breakthrough astronomy—from revealing the fundamental physics underpinning the cosmos, to advancing our ability to search for life on distant worlds.
