The European Southern Observatory (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT) has been fitted with new adaptive optics mode called laser tomography. The telescope has achieved first light using the new optics ...

Astronomers have developed a new visible-light adaptive optics (AO) system for the 6.5 meter diameter Magellan-Clay telescope in Chile's Atacama desert. The new AO system replaces the secondary mirror ...

ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT) has achieved first light with a new adaptive optics mode called laser tomography -- and has captured remarkably sharp test images of the planet Neptune and other ...
