    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_optical...

    When the two mirrors are on one mount, the combined mirror spacing of the Large Binocular Telescope (22.8 m) allows fuller use of the aperture synthesis. Largest does not always equate to being the best telescopes, and overall light gathering power of the optical system can be a poor measure of a telescope's performance.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflecting_telescope

    Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy 24-inch convertible Newtonian/Cassegrain reflecting telescope on display at the Franklin Institute. A reflecting telescope (also called a reflector) is a telescope that uses a single or a combination of curved mirrors that reflect light and form an image.

  4. Eyepiece - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyepiece

    Blue light, seen through an eyepiece element, will not focus to the same point but along the same axis as red light. The effect can create a ring of false colour around point sources of light and results in a general blurriness to the image. One solution is to reduce the aberration by using multiple elements of different types of glass.

    The postage stamp appears larger with the use of a magnifying glass. Stepwise magnification by 6% per frame into a 39-megapixel image. In the final frame, at about 170x, an image of a bystander is seen reflected in the man's cornea. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something.

  6. Telescopic sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_sight

    Exit pupil – Telescopic sights concentrate the light gathered by the objective into a beam, the exit pupil, whose diameter is the objective diameter divided by the magnifying power. For maximum effective light-gathering and brightest image, the exit pupil should equal the diameter of the fully dilated iris – for a youthful dark-adapted ...

  7. Liquid-mirror telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-mirror_telescope

    It will only work in space; but in orbit, gravity will not distort the mirror's shape into a paraboloid. The design features a liquid stored in a flat-bottomed ring-shaped container with raised interior edges. The central focal area would be rectangular, but a secondary rectangular-parabolic mirror would gather the light to a focal point.
