First major astronomical instrument mounted on VLT
On 10 September 1998, the first scientific instrument of the VLT, FORS1, was successfully mounted on the Cassegrain focus of the first 8.2-m VLT telescope (UT1). In this image FORS1, well packed and protected, hangs suspended over the truck which will transport it to the telescope. (Photo obtained on September 10, 1998)
