The CRIRES+ instrument
CRIRES+ (CRyogenic high-resolution InfraRed Echelle Spectrograph+) is an instrument installed on ESO’s VLT that is designed to search for potentially habitable super-Earth exoplanets. The instrument, which has seen first light in early 2021, builds upon its predecessor, CRIRES, which was installed on the VLT in 2006.
