TMA Installation Begins
In early February 2020, a combined team from Rubin Observatory, Asturfeito, and Burger Cranes successfully installed the Telescope Mount Assembly's two main supports and the keel beam (which links the supports) inside the Rubin Observatory summit facility. The pieces were lifted through the observatory dome using a 500-ton crane.
