La Palma Observatory: The HEGRA Gamma - Ray Telescope - HEGRA (High - Energy - Gamma - Ray Astronomy) is a telescope located at the Roque de los Muchachos de La Palma Observatory, in the Canary Islands. After making gamma observations until 2002, it was replaced by the MAGIC telescopes. In the background, the GTC dome. HEGRA (High - Energy - Gamma - Ray Astronomy), was an atmospheric Cherenkov telescope for Gamma - ray astronomy. HEGRA took data between 1987 and 2002, at which point it was dismantled in order to build its successor, MAGIC, at the same site. GTC dome is in background

La Palma Observatory: Telescope FACT - La Palma Observatory: The FACT telescope: FACT (First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope) is a telescope located at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory in La Palma, Canary Islands. One of the MAGIC telescopes is visible in the background. The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) is the first imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope using Geiger-mode avalanche photodiods (G-APDs) as photo sensors. The rather small, low-cost telescope will not only serve as a test bench for this technology in Cherenkov astronomy, but also monitor bright active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the TeV energy range. Image taken at Observatorio del Roque de Los Muchachos, Canary Islands, Spain. One of the MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov Telescopes) is visible in the background. The Canary Islands are volcanic in origin and the whole observatory lies on the edge of the Taburiente volcano

Fog bow on the telescope Grantecan - Fogbow above Grantecan - Fog bow above the telescope Grantecan (Gran Telescopio Canarias) in La Palma, Canary Islands. A haze arc is formed in the way of a rainbow. The light of the Sun is reflected in the water drops of the mist, but unlike raindrops, the mist droplets are much smaller: about a millimetre for the rain versus a few centiemes for the mist. As a result, the diffraction in the mist droplets is preponderant, which results in colour refracting at random angles, between 30 and 45* around the anti-sun point (opposite the Sun).
