Telescope in a sentence

Bradley's classical explanation Figure 2: As light propagates down the telescope, the telescope moves requiring a tilt to the telescope that depends on the speed of light.

However, several telescope manufacturers have recently developed telescope systems that are calibrated with the use of built-in GPS, decreasing the time it takes to set up a telescope at the start of an observing session.

ESO operates ground-based telescopes in Chile including the Very Large Telescope, the Atacama Large Millimeter Array, and the New Technology Telescope.

Perhaps the Hubble Space Telescope’s measurements had been inaccurate due to the limitations of the telescope, which might explain the different figures, and this new tool could help to show if that was the case.

The Virtual Telescope Project in Rome, Italy, will be broadcasting views of comet C/2022 E3 ZTF through a huge telescope.

Weight and portability matter when it comes to purchasing a telescope, and a telescope that's too big or heavy to carry probably won't get used much, unless you're planning to park it in a room, pointed out the window forever.

The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope first revealed theses hot bubbles in 2010; the telescope observed mysterious structures emitting higher-energy gamma rays than the rest of the Milky Way’s disk.

An image of the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico taken by a SkySat satellite Aug. 10 shows the hole in the telescope's dish caused by a cable that broke earlier that day.

The James Webb Space Telescope, the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, is the opposite.

Citizens and scientists alike, inspired by the discoveries and images the telescope had produced, clearly weren’t ready for the telescope’s premature retirement.

The telescope is part of a large project known as the Cherenkov Telescope Array, which will be composed of hundreds of similar telescopes to be situated in the Canary Islands and Chile.

First proposed in 1995, the Next Generation Space Telescope, as it was then known, was intended to follow in the footsteps of the Hubble Space Telescope, extending astronomers’ reach almost all the way back to the big bang birth of the cosmos.

At the beginning of the 21st century, when the northern polar region came into view, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and Keck telescope initially observed neither a collar nor a polar cap in the northern hemisphere.

Bradley's explanation cannot account for situations such as the water telescope, nor for many other optical effects (such as interference) that might occur within the telescope.

He also described an improved telescope—now known as the astronomical or Keplerian telescope —in which two convex lenses can produce higher magnification than Galileo's combination of convex and concave lenses.

He was among the first to use a telescope to observe the sky and after constructing a 20x refractor telescope he discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter in 1610.

In honor of his contribution to the study of the southern hemisphere sky, a 60-cm telescope at Reunion Island will be named the La Caille Telescope.

In that year Smith made Seen Through the Telescope, in which the main shot shows street scene with a young man tying the shoelace and then caressing the foot of his girlfriend, while an old man observes this through a telescope.

Telescope domes have a slit or other opening in the roof that can be opened during observing, and closed when the telescope is not in use.

The 76-cm (30-inch) refractor telescope that became operational in 1888 was at that time the world's largest telescope.
