Finally, we are there: as of April 1, 2000, UVES, the UV-Visual Echelle Spectrograph built by ESO, will start operation at the Nasmyth focus of the VLT telescope Kueyen. The instrument commissioning has been completed in December 1999, eight years after the first proposal to build a high-resolution spectrograph for the VLT was circulated and in perfect schedule with the first detailed VLT planning dated March 1994. UVES will be the third instrument after FORS1 and ISAAC to enter into regular use at the VLT. The second version of FORS, FORS2, will start operating at the same date at the Cassegrain focus of the telescope.
