No. 2028 by the earliest. I visited the site last year and it's still very much a hole in the ground, albeit an enormous one.

Yes, but it will see nothing but the streaks of starlink and other mass constellation satellites.

ELT won't be significantly affected by constellations, as it has a pretty small field of view. It will also mostly be doing infrared observations, which use short exposures.

Hope so. These adaptive optics look very intriguing.
