   This table does not include all the largest mirrors manufactured. The Steward Observatory Mirror Lab produced the 6.5 metre f/1.25 collimator used in the Large Optical Test and Integration Site of Lockheed Martin, used for vacuum optical testing of other telescopes. Segmented mirrors are also referred to as mosaic mirrors. Single mirrors are ...

5. Large Binocular Telescope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Binocular_Telescope

   The telescope design has two 8.4 m (330 inch) mirrors mounted on a common base, hence the name "binocular". [1] LBT takes advantage of active and adaptive optics, provided by Arcetri Observatory. The collecting area is two 8.4 meter aperture mirrors, which works out to about 111 m 2 combined. This area is equivalent to an 11.8-meter (460 in ...
