sorry but the LaSilla site has a lot of different sections and some of them refer back to the Chile area even though they are accessed through a different url- there are FAQs, info for visitors and info for journalist visitors and if you read them all, you get different bits of information. the blog on the site used to say "No visitors in October" because of the professor's disappearance but it now has no October 2022 entry. Not sure if they resumed in November. The visitor section now has the info about the "no visits" situation Weekend Visits to the La Silla ObservatoryThis is a different location. There are those of us who can get confused by the differing locations so precision does help the rest of us or confusion can set in, thank you.ESO - La Silla Paranal Observatory
