Our line of recreational telescopes consists of several groups of scopes based on their optical parameters. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... MRAO Telescopes . ... A radio telescope consists of one or more directional receiving aerials connected to very sensitive amplifiers. Since radio wavelengths range from millimetres to about 10 metres, the actual form of the aerials can vary greatly; many are parabolic dishes with very precise surfaces, while others, like the Cambridge Low-Frequency Synthesis Telescope (right), are similar to television aerials. ...

Next: Instrumental data Up: Introduction Previous: Observatory data . Nearly every telescope seems to have some parts of the sky that are inaccessible. Trees, mountains, and even other telescopes obscure some areas above the horizon. ... In a surprising number of cases, the inaccessible regions extend into the parts of the sky one would normally use to measure extinction stars. Such restrictions should be placed in a separate ``obstruction'' table for each telescope. ...
