*Title*: ALMA: A Revolutionary New View of the Cosmos<br>
*Lecturer*: Nick Scoville<br>
*Position*: Professor<br>
*Institution*: Caltech<br>
*Abstract*:<br>
The Atacama Large mm-Telescope Array has just come into operation in Chile. This 
array of 66 very high frequency radio telescopes is the most technically challenging telescope 
ever built and it will provide higher resolution than the Hubble telescope. I will describe the facility, 
provide a travelog to the site and describe the exciting science results already coming in.
