Aerial view of ESO Headquarters

In Garching bei München, nestled into the lush Bavarian landscape, are the ESO Headquarters and the ESO Supernova Planetarium & Visitor Centre, both of which are pictured in this incredible image from an ultralight plane.

The construction site of the ESO Supernova can be seen encircled by cranes towards the top of this image. The original ESO Headquarters building can be seen to the right, with the new extension building — identifiable through its distinct red roof — to the left.
