  2. Limiting magnitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_magnitude

    More generally, for situations where it is possible to raise a telescope's magnification high enough to make the sky background effectively black, the limiting magnitude is approximated by = ⁡ + ⁡ (/) where and are as stated above, is the observer's pupil diameter in centimetres, and is the telescope transmittance (e.g. 0.75 for a typical ...

  3. Monocular - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocular

    As with binoculars and telescopes, monoculars are primarily defined by two parameters: magnification and objective lens diameter, for example, 8×30 where 8 is the magnification and 30 is the objective lens diameter in mm (this is the lens furthest from the eye). An 8× magnification makes the distant object appear to be 8 times larger at the eye.

  4. Magnification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification

    Stepwise magnification by 6% per frame into a 39-megapixel image. In the final frame, at about 170x, an image of a bystander is seen reflected in the man's cornea. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a size ratio called optical magnification.

  5. Galileoscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileoscope

    Depending on the configuration, 4, 6 or 8 lenses are used. The 4-lens configuration results in a telescope in some ways similar to Galileo's, with 17× magnification and a very small field of view. The 6-lens configuration provides 25× magnification, and the 8-lens configuration allows for 50× magnification.

  6. Eye relief - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_relief

    The eye relief of an optical instrument (such as a telescope, a microscope, or binoculars) is the distance from the last surface of an eyepiece within which the user's eye can obtain the full viewing angle. If a viewer's eye is outside this distance, a reduced field of view will be obtained.

  9. Hubble Space Telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Space_Telescope

    The Hubble Space Telescope (HST or Hubble) is a space telescope that was launched into low Earth orbit in 1990 and remains in operation. It was not the first space telescope, but it is one of the largest and most versatile, renowned as a vital research tool and as a public relations boon for astronomy.
