End of the line

One of the VLT's Auxiliary Telescopes stands at the end of the set of rails used to move it about the VLT platform. Appearing to admire the view of the Atacama, the telescope seems unlikely to experience favourable viewing conditions come night, given the the unusual amount of cloud in the desert sky.
