Antennas are not as sexy as airplanes but they are impressive. Down on the horizon, this one could heat the fillings in your teeth at five miles - or at least that's the story.

2.5 hours from Albuquerque. You take I-25 to Soccoro, hang a west on 60, and drive that to a couple of miles west of Magdalena and the VLA is near there. It's god's country out there, it is very soothing to the soul. I would recommend the trip to anyone. Make sure to fill up on fuel before leaving Albuquerque.

Nice shots. Keep in mind that these are essentially radio telescopes looking back in time. Looking back to the time that a pure energy the size of a baseball, as current theory holds, created our entire known universe. Looking for the thrower of the baseball and the start of the game.
