Clouds encircle TRAPPIST–South, the TRAnsiting Planets and PlanetesImals Small Telescope–South, at ESO's La Silla Observatory in a spectacular scene, partially reminiscent of the Bespin Cloud City.

This 60cm telescope, devoted to the study of planetary systems, detects and characterises exoplanets around other stars in addition to studying comets orbiting around the Sun.
