    When Edmund Scientific introduced the telescope in 1976 they called it "The Edmund Wide-Field Telescope" with a Part Number "2001" [5] Edmund had a public contest which ran until November 15, 1976, to come up with a name. [6] The winning name was "Astroscan 2001". The "2001" part of the name was dropped over time.

    This is a list of United States Army fire control, and sighting material by supply catalog designation, or Standard Nomenclature List (SNL) group "F".The United States Army Ordnance Corps Supply Catalog used an alpha-numeric nomenclature system from about the mid-1920s to about 1958.

  5. Level (optical instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_(optical_instrument)

    The telescope of the historic "Y" level is held in two brass arms, which are part of the mount and the telescope could be easily removed to allow sighting reversal though 180 degrees or an axial rotation of the telescope; both to compensate for optical collimation errors. Because the telescope is not fixed to the level adjusting mechanism, the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucky_imaging

    Lucky image of M15 core. Lucky imaging (also called lucky exposures) is one form of speckle imaging used for astrophotography.Speckle imaging techniques use a high-speed camera with exposure times short enough (100 ms or less) so that the changes in the Earth's atmosphere during the exposure are minimal.

    Dr. Bless died in 2015, and his contributions to the Hubble Space Telescope and the HSP instrument were noted in news media. [2] He worked at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and the HSP was the lightest and least expensive of the launch instruments. [2] The HSP instrument is located as of 2015 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison's ...

    These included making telescopes rigid enough so they would not sag out of focus during the exposure, building clock drives that could rotate the telescope mount at a constant rate, and developing ways to accurately keep a telescope aimed at a fixed point over a long period of time. Early photographic processes also had limitations.

  9. Fine guidance sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_Guidance_Sensor

    A fine guidance sensor (FGS) is an instrument on board a space telescope that provides high-precision pointing information as input to the telescope's attitude control systems. Interferometric FGSs have been deployed on the Hubble Space Telescope; a different technical approach is used for the James Webb Space Telescope's FGSs.
