Sumario:OPERA, CNGS1, is a long base line neutrino oscillation experiment intend to detect nu/sub tau/ appearance among the neutrino flux traveling from CERN. This appearance detection will be the clear and final evidence of the nu/sub mu/rightward arrownuSuper-Kamiokande. At present, OPERA is in the construction stage, emulsion films are in production and in the process of refreshing. The underground detector at Gran Sasso is under construction. The detector will be ready at the middle of 2006, when the CNGS beam is on.
