 In case you do not remember how the #night #sky was before all the #StarLink / #SpaceX #satellites, here is one of the #timelapse I did 5 years ago from the #ESO #LaSilla #observatory, in #Chile 

The #video lasts 1 minute but it corresponds to 10 hours.

The big dish is a decommissioned radio #telescope. In the background there is the 3.6-m telescope with its #exoplanet-hunting instrument #HARPS 

#Astronomy #Astrophotography #space
