... as possible about the object before it disappeared off again. One telescope to get a good look at `Oumuamua – an Hawaiian name meaning ‘scout’ – was ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT). Observations show that `Oumuamua varies dramatically in brightness...
...exoplanets with unprecedented precision by looking at the minute wobbles in the host stars’ motion. Installed on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile, ESPRESSO is the successor to ESO’s hugely successful HARPS instrument. HARPS, which stands for...
...had discovered the first three planets in the system in May of 2016. Now, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, Spitzer, has discovered the rest – bringing the total number of exoplanets in TRAPPIST-1 up to seven. The project team...
... their findings, the team followed up with additional spectroscopic data from the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile and were able to identify dozens of multiply imaged, lensed, background galaxies; multiple images...
... Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph (GNIRS) at Gemini North and the SINFONI instrument on the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope, the team found that the stars were following this predicted precessional motion. Whats more, from...
Astronomers using ESO’s SPHERE instrument at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) could be about to give the fourth... the study. With advances in numerical computation, and more powerful telescopes, scientists are now more able to rewind the clock and piece...
