VLT's ERIS installed at UT4

The ERIS team gather briefly to celebrate the installation of the instrument on the Very Large Telescope's Unit Telescope 4 (Yepun). The versatility of ERIS will lend itself to many fields of astronomical research and it aims to take the sharpest images obtained to date using a single 8-metre class telescope once operational. ERIS is expected to greatly contribute to the probing of distant galaxies, the Galactic Centre, our Solar System and exoplanets.
