FYST assembly in Chile

FYST has reached its final destination on top of the Cerro Chajnantor! A film crew from the German television ZDF came along for the recent transport of CCAT/FYST in Chile from the harbor to the mountain. The Broadcast is embedded in our CCAT-documentary page:

On April 19, 2025, the delivery of FYST to the summit was completed, and April 20 Easter Sunday the bolt ring was set into place marking the start of FYST’s reassembly.
