>A study of the OWL concept was completed and reviewed by a commission of experts in the fall of 2005. While the validity of the concept was acknowledged, because of the risks to cost and schedule, the commission recommended instead a still very large telescope with 39 m main mirror diameter, which has been under construction by ESO since 2013 and was recently renamed Extremely Large Telescope. In this respect, a joking explanation of the abbreviation has come true, in which OWL stands for "Originally was larger".
atleast they are self aware

I mean OWL, it would have been optical like ELT just twice the diameter

It would actually have enough aperature to resolve the moon landing site.
