Summary
DescriptionFrom the Residencia to the Milky Way.jpg |
English: This image captures the route from the Residencia— the guesthouse for visitors to ESO's Paranal Observatory— to the breathtaking heart of the Milky Way, which covers the entire night sky.
The site shown here is Cerro Paranal, home to ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), a telescope comprising four 8.2-metre Unit Telescopes. The VLT can also act as an interferometer in the form of the appropriately-named VLT Interferometer, or VLTI, by gathering additional light from four smaller Auxiliary Telescopes, which can be independently moved around and placed in different configurations. One of these Auxiliary Telescopes is shown in this image, gazing at the sky with its dome wide open. The road from the observatory to the Residencia appears as a shining thread, weaving amongst the rocky outcrops and hills of the desert environment. The yellow glow is caused by dim security lights — the street lighting is kept to a minimum in order to avoid unnecessary light pollution.中文:这张图片捕捉到从游客宾馆到帕瑞纳天文台的道路,和几乎占据整个天空的银河。
这里是帕瑞纳塞罗,这里坐落着欧洲南方天文台的VLT望远镜。它是由4个8.2米口径的单元望远镜组成的大型望远镜。它可以搜集来自4个较小的辅助望远镜的辅助光来组成干涉仪。这些辅助望远镜可以根据实际情况来独立移动。图片里的望远镜就是其中一个辅助望远镜,可以看出它现在正在工作。 图片里地面上闪闪发光的线条是天文台到旅馆的道路。之所以是黄色是由于路上的安全灯造成的,路灯的照明灯保持在最低限度。以避免不必要的光污染。 |
