Namaste,
for those that like to look up... This is Arizona's Large Binocular telescope.

Twin mirrors - each are 8.4 meters or 27.5 ft in diameter. This gives them leverage - as if to have a telescope of 22.8 meters or 74 ft. aperture.

Each mirror is ~ 16 to 18 metric tons.

Very impressive... I have binoculars that are 7X power and a telescope that I may get 50X to 100X power in magnification. Yet its the light gathering that makes a telescope valuable. This unit with a ~74 ft. effective aperture has roughly 5000X image magnification.

[ I gotta get me one of these ]

pranams,

Dear Yajvan: That is fantastic, more opportunity for us to STOP, observe and watch marvellous things in the nature. Keen observation demands my full attention to something extra ordinary, it frees up my mind occupied with problems, worries and speculations.

Thank you for posting

You want one of these? No problem . This is Christmas, please submit your request to Santa Clause, I am sure he will deliver your wishes on time.
Love..............................VC
