Dusk at Paranal

As dusk approaches, the night sky is revealed at Cerro Paranal in Chile. One of the four movable 1.8m diameter Auxiliary Telescopes (ATs) can be seen in action on the platform of the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Meteors are ablaze across the night sky. All captured in this time-lapse during the ESO Ultra High Definition Expedition.
