A Celestial Panorama of Objects as Viewed Above Chile’s Very Large Telescopes

This latest panorama is adopted from a beautiful photograph by Yuri Beletsky from the ESO (European Southern Observatory).  Pictured here is the Milky Way Galaxy and other celestial objects as viewed near the Very Large Telescopes in Chile.  I have included two versions of the panorama.  The first, which can be seen here, is a high resolution image of the telescopes at night.  The second, lower resolution image is the same as the first, but includes labels of celestial objects including the Magellanic Cloud galaxies, Orion, Barnard’s Loop, and the Moon as viewed during a total lunar eclipse.  Enjoy!
