Paranal Observatory, Chile - Paranal and the Full Moon: The Very Large Telescope (VLT) seen on 11 August 2014 lit by the full moon. The full Moon shines over the Very Large Telescope (VLT), the flagship optical observatory of the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and the most advanced one in the world now. The four 8m telescopes telescopes, named Antu (Sun), Kueyen (Moon), Melipal (Southern Cross), and Yepun (Venus) form a very versatile observatory. They can be used as a single large telescope that adds (incoherently) the light from all four, in order to achieve the light gathering ability of a single 16m telescope. Also, their light can be combined in a coherent manner in order to achieve a solving power equivalent to the one of a telescope with a diameter as large as the baseline between the units. Of course, all the telescopes can be used individually, which is usually the default mode of operation

Paranal Observatory - Chile - Paranal Observatory - Chile - The lactee road above the Paranal Observatory in Chile. 360 degree Panorama of ESO - Paranal Observatory platform. The four 8m (UT) and four 1.8 m (AT) diameter telescopes of the VLT are all observing under the Milky Way arch during this very dark Southern hemisphere spring night. The large (LMC) and small (SMC) Magellanic clouds are visible to the left of the picture while another galaxy, Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is also visible just to the right of UT4. Bright Jupiter is high in the sky. The picture also shows two 'astronomical' lights, the zodiacal light crossing the Milky Way center vertically (just at the left of the middle of the image, above AT3) and the Gegenschein, usually very difficult to observe, below Jupiter on the right hand side of the image

Barred spiral galaxy NGC 1398 in the Furnace: The galaxy NGC 1398 is located at a distance of about 65 million light years. Image obtained by the VLT telescope. This galaxy is located in the constellation of Fornax (The Furnace), approximately 65 million light-years away. This image comprises data gathered by the Focal Reducer/low dispersion Spectrograph 2 (FORS2) instrument, mounted on Eso's Very Large Telescope (VLT) at Paranal Observatory, Chile. It shows NGC 1398 in striking detail, from the dark lanes of dust mottling its spiral arms, through to the pin-hued star-forming regions sprinkled throughout its outer regions.

The large spiral galaxy lies in the constellation of Leo (The Lion), and is only 35 million light - years distant. This picture was created from exposures taken through three different filters that passed blue light, yellow/green light, and near - infrared light.

Barree spiral galaxy NGC 7098 - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 7098: The barree spiral galaxy NGC 7098 is located about 95 million light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of the octant. Image obtained by the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Approximately 95 million light-years away, in the southern constellation of Octans (The Octant), lies NGC 7098 - an intriguing spiral galaxy with numerous sets of double features. The first of NGC 7098's double features is a duo of distinct ring-like structures that loop around the galaxy's hazy heart. This central region hosts a second double feature: a double bar. NGC 7098 has also developed features known as ansae, visible as small, bright streaks at each end of the central region. Ansae are visible areas of overdensity - they commonly take looping, linear, or circular shapes, and can be found at the extremities of planetary ring systems, in nebulous clouds, and, as is the case with NGC 7098, in parts of galaxies that are packed to the brim with stars. This image is formed from data gathered by the Focal Reducer and low dispersion Spectrograph (FORS) instrument, installed on Eso's Very Large Telescope at Paranal Observatory. An array of distant galaxies are also visible throughout the frame, the most prominent being the small, edge-on, spiral galaxy visible to the left of NGC 7098, known as ESO 048-G007 — Barree spiral galaxy NGC 7098 - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 7098: The barree spiral galaxy NGC 7098 is located about 95 million light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of the octant.

Spiral galaxy of Sombrero M104 in the Virgin - The Sombrero galaxy (M104) in Virgo - The spiral galaxy M104 (NGC 4594, Sombrero galaxy) is located about 28 million years ago - light. Image obtained with the ANTU telescope of the VLT on January 30, 2000. The light from this remarkable spiral system is dominated by the billions of old, faint stars that form the vast 'bulge' around its tiny hidden nucleus. Most spirals, including the Milky Way, have clouds of old, faint stars around their nuclei, but in M104 the galaxy's light is dominated by them. This effect is enhanced because disk of the galaxy is seen nearly edge - on and dust in its outer parts is in silhouette as it crosses the picture. The galaxy is about 28 million light years distant. This image was obtained with FORS1 instrument on ANTU telescope at Paranal observatory on January 30 2000
