Summary:

"The Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) - the product of more than a century of Astronomical research and telescope-building by some of the world's leading Research institutions - will open a new window on the universe for the 21st century. GMT is scheduled for completion around 2016 and will have the resolving power of a 24.5-meter primary mirror - far larger than any other telescope ever built. It will answer many questions at the forefront of astrophysics today and will pose new and unanticipated riddles for future generations of astronomers. GMT will produce images up to 10 times sharper than the Hubble Space Telescope."--GMT Public Brochure.
