    Orion ED120 apo refractor on Orion's Sirius EQ-G "GoTo" and GPS equipped German equatorial mount with portable 12 volt power supply. Orion sold a range of telescopes that they characterize as "beginner", "intermediate" or "advanced", including Newtonians, Maksutovs, Schmidt-Cassegrains, Ritchey-Chrétiens and refractors with or without (sold as optical tube assemblies or "OTA") a variety of ...

    The Orion 1 space astrophysical observatory was installed in the orbital station Salyut 1. It was designed by Grigor Gurzadyan of Byurakan Observatory in Armenia , USSR . It was operated in June 1971 by crew member Viktor Patsayev , who thus became the first man to operate a telescope outside the Earth's atmosphere.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_speed_focuser

    The Dual speed focuser is a focusing mechanism used in precision optics such as advanced amateur astronomical telescopes and laboratory microscopes. A dual speed focuser can provide two focusing speeds by using a set of co-axial knobs, one for fast focusing and another for fine focusing when the film or CCD is near the perfect focal plane.

    The telescope used by Berkowski was attached to 6 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (17 cm) Königsberg heliometer and had an aperture of only 2.4 in (6.1 cm), and a focal length of 32 in (81 cm). Commencing immediately after the beginning of totality, Berkowski exposed a daguerreotype plate for 84 seconds in the focus of the telescope, and on developing an image ...

    The Spacelab Infrared Telescope (IRT) was also flown on the mission. [3] The IRT was a 15.2 cm (6.0 in) aperture helium-cooled infrared telescope, observing light between wavelengths of 1.7 to 118 μm. [3] It was thought heat emissions from the Shuttle would corrupt long-wavelength data, however it still returned useful astronomical data. [3]

    The Optical Monitor (OM) is a 30 cm (12 in) Ritchey–Chrétien optical/ultraviolet telescope designed to provide simultaneous observations alongside the spacecraft's X-ray instruments. The OM is sensitive between 170 and 650 nanometres in a 17 × 17 arcminute square field of view co-aligned with the centre of the X-ray telescope's field of view.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astroscan

    The Astroscan had a Newtonian reflector layout with a 4 + 1 ⁄ 8 in (10 cm) clear-inch diameter f/4.2 aluminized and overcoated borosilicate glass parabolic primary mirror with a focal length of 17 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (44 cm). [1] The telescope's secondary mirror was mounted on a flat optical window at the front of the tube. Edmund designer ...

    Early reflectors using speculum metal had some of the record-breaking apertures of the day, but not necessarily high performance. Starting in the 1860s metal coated glass ('Silver on glass') reflector telescopes proved more durable, for example the Crossley Reflector, which continued to be used and upgraded even into the 21st century.
