Abstract :
[en] The Mid-Infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) will be one of only three 1st-generation science instruments on the 39m Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). METIS will provide diffraction-limited imaging and medium resolution slitspectroscopy from 3-13 microns (L, M, and N bands), as well as high resolution (R≈100,000) integral field spectroscopy from 2.9-5.3 microns. Both imaging and IFU spectroscopy can be combined with coronagraphic techniques. <BR></BR> <br clear="all"/> After the final design reviews of the optics (2021) and the entire system (2022), most hardware procurements have started. In this paper we present an overview of the status of the various ongoing activities. Many hardware components are already in hand, and the manufacturing is in full swing in order to start the assembly and testing of the subsystems in 2024 toward first light at the telescope in 2028/29. This rather brief paper only provides an overview of the project status. For more information, we refer to the detailed instrument paper which will be published soon.
