"I was completely overwhelmed by the beauty of it all, to the point of forgetting everything around me! A sky of absolute purity, free from artificial light.”   This is how astrophotographer Julien Looten remembers the night he captured this VLT view https://www.eso.org/public/images/potw2602a/ 🔭 🧪

A 360-degree panorama during the night. On the left, one smaller dome and four larger ones are visible on the ground. From the right-hand large dome, two yellow lights are emerging from it. In behind the four buildings on the left side is a faint white glow visible. To the right side of the image, another runway is displayed. At the horizon, a green and red glow around can be seen. Over this area, Milky Way is spanned.

Julien Looten est un astrophotographe brillant, ses créations sont à la croisée de l’art et de la science, il sublime la beauté du cosmos avec une poésie visuelle extraordinaire.Voici un exemple de son travail d'astrophotographie M81 la galaxie de Bode à gauche et M82 la galaxie du cigare à droite.
