The European Southern Observatory (ESO) enables scientists worldwide to discover the secrets of the Universe by designing, building and operating world-class observatories on the ground. ESO is an intergovernmental organization established in 1962 and supported by 16 Member States — including France —, their host country Chile and strategic partners. ESO brings together over 750 staff from more than 30 countries, and countless more collaborators worldwide. ESO’s headquarters, visitor center and planetarium are located close to Munich, in Germany, but their telescopes are located in the Chilean Atacama Desert, a marvelous place with unique conditions to observe the sky. ESO operates three observing sites in Chile, where some of the most productive and most advanced telescopes in the world can be found: La Silla, Paranal and Chajnantor. In addition, ESO is building “the world’s biggest eye on the sky”— ESO’s Extremely Large Telescope. 22000 astronomers from over 130 different countries use ESO telescopes to tackle exciting questions and spread the fascination of astronomy! |
