Soundscape: Paranal UT dome rotation
(Interior) Each VLT Unit Telescope is enclosed in a building which consists of two structures: a fixed cylindrical part and a rotating dome, which can rotate independently of the telescope and allows following the movements of the telescopes during the observations. It makes a very discreet sound when moving yet is preceded by an alarm as a security alert before it starts its motion.
