A few photos where you can see how well the team progress at Paranal. Two of them show the excellent team spirit we have : taking measures to shut up our software engineer, and then most of us hanging around on the floor.
The other two show an historical milestone: the first MATISSE hardware is brought to the telescope platform, and a bit later, the Project Manager enjoying to have the first piece of MATISSE in the VLTI Lab.
