Paranal telescopes with Laser Guide star (Unique 360º night time lapse)



Full night and full horizon (360º) night time lapse movie of ESO-Paranal observatory (Chile) during observations. Laser guide star used for adaptive optics is visible. Note that the Laser Guide Star beam is "straight" in normal life, it seems bended here because of the distortion due to the projection used to make this movie from a high quality fish eye movie.
