Observing from La Silla with Patrick Moore
High in the Andes mountains of Chile lies one of the world's major observatories, La Silla, with its 15 telescopes.
Conditions there are ideal - far better than anywhere in Europe. In this programme
Patrick Moore visits La Silla , talks to the astronomers there, and even has what may be his last view of Halley's Comet.
