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 in the centre of this image, with the original ESO Headquarters building to its right, and the new extension building — identifiable through its distinct red roof — to its left.

The black, rounded building towards the bottom of the image is the technical building, where work on new instruments is carried out.
