Stars trails over the site testing station in South Africa

An aluminium hut gives shelter during the night and is used to store the Danjou telescope during the day. The 25-cm Danjou telescope was used to measure the seeing. This picture was taken at the ESO site testing station in South Africa, in 1961.
