Crystal-Clear Colour

Located high on the top of a Chilean mountain, ESO’s Paranal Observatory benefits from incredibly clear skies and arid weather conditions, perfect for scientific observations. This photograph of the site shows an especially beautiful scene, as the setting Sun paints the sky with beautiful hues of pink, orange, purple, blue, and yellow.
