Star trails at Paranal
A view from the desert landscape around ESO's Paranal Observatory in Chile reveals stars' paths — star trails — as they appear to journey through the night sky. Caused by the Earth's rotation relative to a static sky, the stars appear to travel around one fixed point — Earth's Celestial South Pole — which is just visible above the rust-tinted horizon.
