   OMI developed the 30-inch mirror for Obsession Telescopes's 30-inch reflector [12] When Obsession withdrew from the 30-inch market, OMI still wanted to offer their 30-inch mirrors. [13] Drawing on help from Obsession Telescopes and their own experience with the OMI 48-inch telescope, they offered the OMI Evolution-30 in 2009.

   X-ray mirrors can be built, but only if the angle from the plane of reflection is very low (typically 10 arc-minutes to 2 degrees). [2] These are called glancing (or grazing ) incidence mirrors . In 1952, Hans Wolter outlined three ways a telescope could be built using only this kind of mirror.

   A mirror reflecting the image of a vase A first-surface mirror coated with aluminium and enhanced with dielectric coatings. The angle of the incident light (represented by both the light in the mirror and the shadow behind it) exactly matches the angle of reflection (the reflected light shining on the table). 4.5-metre (15 ft)-tall acoustic mirror near Kilnsea Grange, East Yorkshire, UK, from ...

5. Thirty Meter Telescope - Wikipedia

   In 2000, astronomers began considering the potential of telescopes larger than 20 meters (66 ft) in diameter. The technology to build a mirror larger than 8.4 meters (28 ft) does not exist; [as of?] instead scientists considered two methods: either segmented smaller mirrors as used in the Keck Observatory, or a group of 8-meter (26') mirrors mounted to form a single unit.

   The largest optical telescope in the world as of 2009 to use a non-segmented single-mirror as its primary mirror is the 8.2 m (27 ft) Subaru telescope of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, located in Mauna Kea Observatory on Hawaii since 1997; [3] [better source needed] however, this is not the largest diameter single mirror in a telescope, the U.S./German/Italian Large Binocular ...
