Description
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the global, next-generation instrument for high-energy gamma-ray astronomy, with unprecedented performance in every respect. It will be an observatory with telescopes in the South and North, and will gradually become an open observatory. CTA is rapidly approaching its realisation. Construction of pre-production telescopes has commenced and data analysis is prepared for a wide range of science topics. The status and perspectives for the near future will be presented.
