Web cameras have been placed at many of the ESO sites, allowing anyone to see ESO’s advanced telescopes in action in one of the driest deserts in the world at any time. The 24/7 live transmission from the webcams offers multiple streams that are not to be missed:
Paranal Observatory, Very Large Telescope and the future site of the Extremely Large Telescope, ELT (Cerro Paranal and Cerro Armazones, Chile): Follow astronomers and engineers as they work at the VLT — the largest visible-light telescope in the world — and see how the four Unit Telescopes are operated or maintained. The Paranal Web Cam is an Apical NEOS360.
ALMA Observatory (Chajnantor Plateau, Chile): Spot the ALMA antennas as they are being operated by ESO and partners. The camera looks at the Chajnantor Plateau at the Operations Support Facilities near San Pedro de Atacama, Chile.
APEX (Chajnantor Plateau, Chile): Watch the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope at an elevation of 5100 metres, at one of the highest observatory sites on Earth.
La Silla Night Cam: Admire breathtaking night views of the Milky Way from the La Silla Observatory.
Rapid Eye Mount (REM) telescope: Four webcams monitor REM at ESO's La Silla Observatory.
Danish 1.54-metre telescope: All-sky camera at ESO's La Silla Observatory.

Views from the VLT
The images are produced with a NEOS360 camera by Apical Technologies.
Webcam | 20 Oct 2016 12:03 CEST
The live webcam offers high-resolution views of the Very Large Telescope observing platform. You can zoom in the Unit Telescopes, Auxiliary Telescopes, the VLT Survey Telescope (VST), Cerro Armazones (home of the ELT) and even the distant volcano Llullaillaco (at an amazing distance of 190 km from Paranal). Note that the Moon at times can be so bright that night almost looks like day.

Cerro Armazones, home of the future ELT. Note the construction work that is ongoing there. Also note that the Sun rises right behind Armazones as seen from VLT at certain times of the year.

The live webcam offers high-resolution views of the Chajnantor plateau, located at 5000 meters above sea level in the Atacama Desert in Chile. Here several antennas that take part of ALMA as well as APEX can be seen pointing to the sky.

La Silla Night Cam
Chile night time only! During the day the webcam shows the last frame before sunrise. The red letters indicate telescopes that are observing right now (T—the ESO 3.6-metre telescope, N— New Technology Telescope and D—the MPG/ESO 2.2-metre telescope). Please, see more on La Silla - All Sky Camera.
REM webcams at La Silla
The webcam images of the Rapid Eye Mount (REM) telescope are refreshed every 10 minutes and are maintained by INAF. Please note that during night time these images will be completely dark.
