The VLA dishes in motion 📡 Photo taken by @bettymayafoott as part of an astrophotography project with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory and the Very Large Array (VLA). 📸 Credit: Bettymaya Foott, NRAO/AUI/NSF
What is that eerie glow of light in this photo? 😱 It's something called Zodiacal Light or false dawn. Zodiacal light is a rare optical phenomenon that occurs when sunlight reflects off tiny particles of cosmic dust. 📸 Credit: Bettymaya Foott, NRAO/AUI/NSF
The VLA has a total of 28 antennas (27 active and 1 spare). Here we can see several of them in one photo - the West Arm of the Very Large Array! 📡 📸 Credit: Bettymaya Foott, NRAO/AUI/NSF

Hey, it’s my neighborhood National Park! (It’s literally a couple of miles from my house.) A place like @SaguaroNPS is very much what we had in mind when we created the UNSP label. This news is very good indeed. Congratulations! 🌵

Under One Sky 2023, DarkSky's global conference on preserving nighttime environments and fighting the growing threat of light pollution, was a huge successes. Thank you to all those who participated! If you attended–share your thoughts! We'd love to hear about your experience.
Moonrise over the VLA 📡 Yes, we said MOONrise. Fun fact: when the moon is just rising, it can be captured on camera almost like a sunrise, but with the stars still visible in the sky! 📸 Credit: Bettymaya Foott, NRAO/AUI/NSF

That’s a strange-looking telescope… Just kidding! This shiny ball is actually an astronomical sundial! The radio-sundial was constructed from piers formerly used to support antennas in the Bracewell Radio Telescope which was built in 1952.

There are over 40 miles of double tracks stretched throughout the VLA for transporters like the one seen here. These massive machines can gently lift and carry these 230-ton antennas around the array with ease. 📸 Credit: Jeff Hellerman, NRAO/AUI/NSF
