The Arecibo Telescope was a 305 m (1,000 ft) spherical reflector radio telescope built into a natural sinkhole at the Arecibo Observatory located near Arecibo, Puerto Rico.A cable-mount steerable receiver and several radar transmitters for emitting signals were mounted 150 m (492 ft) above the dish.
Telescopes can be classified by optical design or mechanical design/construction. Telescopes can also be classified by where they are placed, such as space telescopes . One major determining factor is type of light, or particle being observed including devices referred to as "telescopes" that do not form an image or use optics.
One MINERVA-Red telescope Cameras: 2k × 2k back illuminated CCD with 15 μm pixels offering > 20’ f.o.v. Spectrograph: Stabilized, R = 75,000 echelle spectrograph with iodine cell for precise radial velocimetry designed by KiwiStar Optics (a business unit of Callaghan Innovation; a New Zealand government-owned Crown entity).
An Aragoscope is a telescope design based on diffraction around the edge of an occluding disc, named after French scientist François Arago. Concept The ...
The animation's director, Li Zhenyi (李圳宜), is a student studying at the University of Pau and the Adour Region and a fan of the Three-Body Problem.As he was often asked about the novel, he decided to use Minecraft to make an animated adaption of the work. [2]
The Crossed Dragone Telescope is an off-axis telescope design consisting of a parabolic primary mirror and a large concave secondary mirror arranged so that the focal plane is at right angles to the incoming light. In this configuration the polarization of light is preserved through the optics.
A Fresnel imager is a proposed ultra-lightweight design for a space telescope that uses a Fresnel lens to focus light. [29] [30] Beyond these basic optical types there are many sub-types of varying optical design classified by the task they perform such as astrographs, [31] comet seekers [32] and solar telescopes.

GDMC (short for Generative Design in Minecraft) is a programming competition to create procedurally generated settlements in Minecraft. [1] The competition is organized by academics from New York University , the University of Hertfordshire and the Queen Mary University of London .
