New Mexico

Located in central New Mexico, there are 27 dish-shaped antenna connected together to form the Very Large Array (VLA), the most powerful radio telescope in the world.

Comet Hale-Bopp

Seen rising over the Sacramento Mountains & the Space Center in Alamogordo, New Mexico in this one minute time exposure taken by Space Center Staff Photographer Ron Keller.

The 2 tails characteristic of all comets can be clearly seen in this image. One, comprised mostly of ice & dust particles (the white tail), and one comprised mostly of ionized gas particles (the blue tail).

An interesting side note:
Dr. Alan Hale, co-discoverer of the comet, lives in Cloudcroft, N.M., which is located in the Sacramento Mountains behind Alamogordo approximately under the area where the comet was photographed.
