#PPOD: The night sky stretches above ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile’s Atacama Desert, one of the world’s premier locations for ground-based astronomy. This view was captured beside Paranal’s Visitor Center, beneath the exceptionally dark skies that make the remote site such a powerful window on the universe. In the background sits the Paranal Technology Museum, housed inside an old train car. Credit: ESO/N. Schafer
