One of the four optical telescopes that form the Very Large Telescope (VLT), at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) is seen in Paranal, some 1150 km north of Santiago, Chile. Astronomers in Chile and Japan have for the first time seen part of the "cosmic web" of galaxies that permeates the known universe in a gigantic assembly some seven billion light-years from Earth.
