Double detonation: Zooming into Supernova remnant SNR 0509-67.5. New observations with @eso.org shows remains of star destroyed by pair of explosions.

Incredible moon rise behind the Extremely Large Telescope @eso.org
A stunning video taken on 13 March by our colleague Juan Beltrán, who works at ESO’s Paranal Observatory, not far from the ELT.

3D scanning the mountain where @eso.org is building the biggest telescope in the world, the ELT, to import in UE5 @unrealengine.bsky.social game engine, for an interactive virtual tour—an exciting project I'm currently working on.

Extreme supersonic winds measured on planet outside our Solar System @eso.org
Astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of WASP-127b. Reaching speeds up to 33 000 km/h, the winds make up the fastest jetstream of its kind ever measured on a planet. #astronomy
