@esoastronomy A few more details about 4MOST/AESOP, and a link to a video of AESOP in action, can be found on @esoastronomy's Picture of the Week page: https://www.eso.org/public/images/potw2529a/

#Astronomy #Astrodon #4MOST #AESOP #Paranal

Great to see @esoastronomy celebrating the installation of the 4MOST instrument on the Vista telescope at Paranal Observatory.

The optical fibre positioning system (the part of 4MOST which stars in the photos and video) is called AESOP, and was designed and built by my colleagues at Australian Astronomical Optics (AAO), here in Sydney.

"The industrial #megaproject is planned to be located just 5 to 11 kilometres from telescopes at Paranal, which would cause irreparable damage to astronomical observations, in particular due to light pollution emitted throughout the project’s operational life. Relocating the complex would save one of Earth's last truly pristine dark skies." (via @esoastronomy)

This place is absolutely amazing. I have so many cool photos and so many things to say, but for now I'll just post this one.

It's a photo I took just now of the Very Large Telescope UT4 firing its lasers into the Milky Way.
