Description | Astronomy is big science. It's a vast Universe out there, and the exploration of the cosmos requires huge instruments. This is the 5-meter Hale reflector on Palomar Mountain. When the European Southern Observatory came into being, fifty years ago, it was the largest telescope in the world. ESO's Very Large Telescope at Cerro Paranal is the state of the art now. As the most powerful observatory in history, it has revealed the full splendor of the Universe in which we live. But astronomers have set their sights on even bigger instruments. And ESO is realizing their dreams. |
