Paranal :Paranal ESO Observatory
Paranal/FORS1 :FORS is the visual and near UV FOcal Reducer and low dispersion Spectrograph for the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory (ESO). Two versions of FORS have been built, upgraded and moved to the Cassegrain foci of different telescopes in the past years. In April 2009, FORS1 was dismounted to make room for X-shooter,id:Paranal/FORS1.a
