  2. Yata no Kagami - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yata_no_Kagami

    The Yata no Kagami represents "wisdom" or "honesty," depending on the source. [2] Its name literally means "The Eight Ata Mirror," a reference to its size. [3] [4] Mirrors in ancient Japan represented truth because they merely reflected what was shown, and were objects of mystique and reverence (being uncommon items).

  3. Three-mirror anastigmat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-mirror_anastigmat

    A three-mirror anastigmat is an anastigmat telescope built with three curved mirrors, enabling it to minimize all three main optical aberrations – spherical aberration, coma, and astigmatism. This is primarily used to enable wide fields of view, much larger than possible with telescopes with just one or two curved surfaces.

  4. Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_Optics_Space...

    One potential option was to insert corrective optics, lenses or mirrors in the telescope tube between the primary mirror and the secondary reflector. However the tube was too narrow for even the smallest astronaut to slither down it, leading to a search for a means of inserting the required corrective components into the tube.

  5. Infinity mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity_mirror

    An infinity mirror effect viewed between paired mirrors in a public bathroom. The infinity mirror (also sometimes called an infinite mirror) is a configuration of two or more parallel or angled mirrors, which are arranged to create a series of smaller and smaller reflections that appear to recede to infinity.

  6. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    The metal used determines the reflection characteristics of the mirror; aluminium is the cheapest and most common coating, and yields a reflectivity of around 88%-92% over the visible spectrum. More expensive is silver , which has a reflectivity of 95%-99% even into the far infrared , but suffers from decreasing reflectivity (<90%) in the blue ...

  7. Mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 ...
