Udbygning af ESOs hovedkvarter bliver indviet
Nye bygninger på ESOs Garching hovedkvarter afsløres officielt
5. december 2013
Den 4. december 2013 vil en officiel indvielsesceremoni for den nye kontortilbygning på ESOs hovedkvarter blive afholdt i Garching bei München. Denne begivenhed vil være for medlemmer af ESOs styrelse, lokale myndigheder, arkitekterne Auer+Weber+Assoziierte, byggeherrerne BAM Deutschland AG og ESOs ledelse.
Afsløringen af udbygningen markerer en vigtig dag i ESOs historie og vil ikke blot bringe ESOs ansatte i Garching sammen på et sted - hvilket bidrager til vigtigt samarbejde - men giver også en teknisk bygning til samling, test og opgradering af ESOs mest avancerede instrumenter. Udbygningen blev gjort mulig takket være gavmilde bidrag fra det tyske ministerium for videnskab og forskning.
De to nye bygninger, der består af en kontorbygning på 10.300 kvadratmeter og en teknisk bygning op 2900 kvadratmeter samt deres omgivelser, dækker over mere end dobbelt det nuværende areal af ESOs hovedkvarter i Garching. Den nye pladsforøgelse var hårdt tiltrængt, da ESOs medarbejdere indtil nu har været spredt ud i forskellige bygninger omkring Garchings campusområde.
Med European Extremely Large Telescope i støbeskeen vil ESO i endnu højere grad få brug for et sted til de teknologiske fremskridt som dette ambitiøse projekt vil have brug for. Den tekniske bygning vil være midtpunktet i dette arbejde og vil samtidig huse et af de største computerarkiver til astronomiske data i verden.
De to bygninger og den bro der forbinder dem til det nuværende hovedkvarter, er designet af arkitekterne Auer+Weber+Assoziierte, der blev udvalgt blandt mange forskellige bud. Denne virksomhed har også designet Residencia ved ESOs Paranalobservatorium i Chile, der har modtaget både LEAF-prisen i 2004 og en Cityscape Architectural Review Award i 2005.
Udbygningen er designet så den passer til den originale bygning. Kontorbygningen der følger den samme kurvede form gør i høj grad brug af naturlige lyskilder og har to indre gårdmiljøer. Den tekniske bygning er en cylinder med en diameter på næsten samme størrelse som det 39-meter store hovedspejl på E-ELT.
Begge nye bygninger er grønne bygninger, da deres energiforbrug er meget lavere end normen for bygninger af denne størrelse. Dette er grundet den velisolerede facade og fordi kontorbygningen opvarmet og nedkøles gennem betonkerneaktivering, hvor grundvandet bruges sammen med en varmepumpe, der suppleres med fjernvarme der bruger geotermisk opvarmet vand.
Konstruktionen af udbygningen begyndte i januar 2012 og markerer et vigtigt skridt for ESOs konstante udvikling.
Mere information
ESO, det Europæiske Syd Observatorium, er den mest fremtrædende internationale astronomi-organisation i Europa og verdens mest produktive astronomiske observatorium. ESO har i dag følgende 14 medlemslande: Belgien, Danmark, Finland, Frankrig, Holland, Italien, Portugal, Schweiz og Storbritannien, Spanien, Sverige, Tjekkiet, Tyskland og Østrig. Flere lande har udtrykt interesse i medlemskab. ESO’s aktiviteter er fokuseret på design, konstruktion og drift af jordbaserede observationsfaciliteter for astronomi for at muliggøre vigtige videnskabelige opdagelser. ESO spiller også en ledende rolle for at fremme og organisere samarbejdet inden for astronomisk forskning. I Chile driver ESO tre unikke observatorier i verdensklasse: La Silla, Paranal og Chajnantor. På Paranal driver ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT), der er verdens mest avancerede astronomiske observatorium til observationer i synligt lys. ESO er den europæiske partner i et revolutionerede astronomisk teleskop kaldet ALMA, det største igangværende astronomiske projekt. ESO planlægger i øjeblikket et 42 meter optisk/nær-infrarødt teleskop kaldet European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT), der vil blive ”verdens største øje mod himlen”.
