°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ

Fourteen years after the start of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ project construction, the buildings of the scientific installation are nearly complete—except for the Hot Cell Facility, whose construction is not yet underway. Equipment installation is well advanced and a number of plants are operational. °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ's drone videographer spent a week on site in October 2024, filming some of the most unique and unexpected areas. The result? A series of new aerial photos available for download from the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ image galleries.

At least once a year, the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ worksite is surveyed by drone from every possible angle—from the widest frame (a kilometre above the platform) to the narrowest (in and out of components staged for assembly). The results of the latest campaign in October 2024 can be viewed in the form of a five-minute video that shows the progress on site since the last time the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization published a drone video, one year ago. As the drone takes you in and around the main buildings of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ scientific installation you'll see the complexity of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ industrial plants, ongoing repairs to critical machine elements, components arriving from overseas, and the day-to-day reality for the thousands of workers involved in building °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ.
