Night MAGIC

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

On a rare foggy night, laser beams seem to play across the MAGIC telescope at Roque de los Muchachos. These lasers are part of a system designed to automatically adjust the focusing of the seventeen-meter-wide instrument. The MAGIC telescope detects gamma rays, photons with over 100 billion times the energy of visible light. It observes the faint blue light produced when gamma rays hit Earth's atmosphere.
