OmegaCAM telescope camera. Close-up of the OmegaCAM - the camera for the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) - under construction. The VST is located at the Paranal Observatory in the Atacama desert,Chile. It will be used to provide views of faint and rare objects for the Very Large Telescope (VLT) to then examine. It will also function as a surveyor for trans-Neptunian objects,distant galaxy clusters,and other astronomical objects. It is the successor to the present Wide Field Imager (WFI) at the 2.2-m MPG/ESO Telescope on La Silla | |
