Antu, Kueyen, Melipal and Yepun
This fish-eye fulldome image shows the Milky Way lying parallel to the horizon behind the ESO-operated Very Large Telescope (VLT). The VLT is based at the Cerro Paranal site in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile, and it houses four 8.2-metre Unit Telescopes known as Antu, Kueyen, Melipal and Yepun, shown here lined up in front of a stunning starry backdrop.
