There's a partial solar #eclipse tomorrow! The #Moon will slip between #Earth and the #Sun, casting its shadow over us 🌞🌕🌍

To get in the spirit, let’s take a (very) close peek at our cosmic neighbour, with its crater-covered surface. And, sadly, no cheese in sight 🧀 👀

This image was captured in early January through the Nasmyth A focus of the UT1 telescope at our Very Large Telescope (VLT) in #Chile

A closeup image of a circular patch of the Moon's surface, bright and gray, sprinkled with mountains and circular craters of different sizes. This image is surrounded by a circular shadow and a cross-shaped shadow of the structure that supports one of the telescope's mirrors.
