Légende
MAGIC telescope, La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain. Several astronomical observatories have been built at Roque de Los Muchachos, the highest point on La Palma at an altitude of just over 2400 metres. The MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov) telescope detects particle showers released by cosmic gamma-rays using Cherenkov radiation. As of 2009 it was the largest telescope of its type in the world.
