Team VLT

Antu, Kueyen, Melipal, and Yepun, the VLT Unit Telescopes, with the VST in the background. The VLT, used to observe specific small points in the sky in exquisite detail, and the VST, which broadly surveys large swathes of the sky, form a formidable partnership, the one hunting for celestial items of interest, the other honing in and studying them in detail.
