    The first was a commandable coronagraphic mask that included two occulting spots, one of diameter 1.8" at the center of the field and the other of diameter 3.0" nearer to a corner. The first spot was the most popular of the two, for example, for imaging circumstellar disks around nearby bright stars or the host galaxies of luminous quasars.

    The Astroscan had a Newtonian reflector layout with a 4 + 18 in (10 cm) clear-inch diameter f/4.2 aluminized and overcoated borosilicate glass parabolic primary mirror with a focal length of 17 + 12 inches (44 cm). [1] The telescope's secondary mirror was mounted on a flat optical window at

    From the center to outer edge of the FGS field of view is 14.1 arcminutes [1] This is a diagram of the field of view of each Hubble Space Telescope instrument, including the three FGS instruments (FGS field of view(s) highlighted in yellow) A Fine Guidance Sensor being refurbished between servicing missions SM3A and SM4 A fine guidance sensors in space on STS Servicing Mission 2 in 1997

  5. Altazimuth mount - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altazimuth_mount

    In the largest telescopes, the mass and cost of an equatorial mount is prohibitive and they have been superseded by computer-controlled altazimuth mounts. [5] The simple structure of an altazimuth mount allows significant cost reductions, in spite of the additional cost associated with the more complex tracking and image-orienting mechanisms. [6]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Speed_Photometer

    The High Speed Photometer (HSP) is a scientific instrument formerly installed on the Hubble Space Telescope. The HSP was designed to measure the brightness and polarity of rapidly varying celestial objects. It could observe in ultraviolet, visible light, and near infrared at a rate of one measurement per 10 microseconds. The design was novel in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDM_Observatory

    The 1.3-meter McGraw-Hill Telescope, with a 1.27-meter clear aperture, is an aluminum-coated Cer-Vit (low thermal expansion glass) telescope. Its usable foci include f/7.5 and f/13.5. [ 6 ] The telescope was originally installed at Stinchfield Woods, Michigan in 1969, and moved in 1975 to MDM.

  8. Lucky imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucky_imaging

    The telescope, with lucky cam and adaptive optics, pushed it near its theoretical angular resolution, achieving up to 0.025 arc seconds for certain types of viewing. [10] Compared to space telescopes like the 2.4 m Hubble, the system still has some drawbacks including a narrow field of view for crisp images (typically 10" to 20"), airglow, and ...

    With its coolant depleted, the spacecraft's temperature was reduced from 200 K (−73 °C; −100 °F) — a relatively high temperature resulting from its hibernation — to an operating temperature of 75 K (−198.2 °C; −324.7 °F) by having the telescope stare into deep space.
