Very Large Telescope
Very Large Telescope (VLT) An instrument consisting of four 8.2-m reflectors, with the combined collecting area of a 16-m mirror, owned and operated by the
European Southern Observatory at an altitude of 2635 m at the
Paranal Observatory in Chile. Light from the four individual reflectors, known as the Unit Telescopes (
UT), can be combined in the VLT Interferometer (
VLTI). Unit Telescope 1, named Antu, was opened in 1998 followed by UT2, Kueyen, in 1999, with UT3 and UT4, Melipal and Yepun, in 2000. Next to the Unit Telescopes are four movable 1.8-m Auxiliary Telescopes (
AT), which can be placed in 30 different positions providing interferometer baselines up to 200 m. The first AT was installed in 2004 and the last in 2006. Also on the same site is the 2.61‐m VLT Survey Telescope (
VST), a wide‐field survey instrument built by ESO and Italy, expected to begin observations in 2007. http://www.eso.org/outreach/ut1fl/
