European Southern Observatory

DE

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is an intergovernmental research organization for ground-based astronomy, consisting of 16 member states, and Chile as the host state. ESO operates world-class observing facilities in the Chilean Atacama Desert, including the Very Large Telescope (VLT) and the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), and is constructing the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). ESO facilitates astronomical discoveries by providing state-of-the-art telescopes and instruments to astronomers, and fosters collaboration in astronomy research.
