-The {{w|Very Large Telescope}} is an existing telescope, while the {{w|European Extremely Large Telescope|(European) Extremely Large Telescope}} was in an advanced planning stage at the time of the comic's release. The {{w|Overwhelmingly Large Telescope}} was another proposed telescope that, as the comic mentions, was cancelled. The comic pokes fun at the generic nature of the names of the telescopes by proposing more generic but increasingly ridiculous names for future telescopes.
+The {{w|Very Large Telescope}} is an existing telescope, while the {{w|European Extremely Large Telescope|(European) Extremely Large Telescope}} was in an advanced planning stage at the time of the comic's release. Both are now built and are located in Chile. The {{w|Overwhelmingly Large Telescope}} was another proposed telescope that, as the comic mentions, was cancelled. The comic pokes fun at the generic nature of the names of the telescopes by proposing more generic but increasingly ridiculous names for future telescopes. It mocks the fact that, while scientists usually use very precise terminology, the names for these telescopes are anything but.
 The title text talks about the {{w|Thirty Meter Telescope}}, which is about to begin construction on {{w|Mauna Kea}} (a dormant volcano) in Hawaii, and seems to compare it to the {{w|Sauron#Eye of Sauron|Eye of Sauron}}. It is expected to be the most advanced and powerful optical telescope on Earth when completed.
