Meridian Telescopes: Production Planning ACTG 2020 - Section S – Group 6 To: Cathy Kain‚ President of Meridian Re: Production Planning Overview Meridian has been manufacturing fine telescopes for 80 years and has developed a well-earned reputation for quality craftsmanship. The company itself produces and sells two distinct lines of telescopes‚ which are produced in its 200‚000 square feet facility. Furthermore‚ both lines have been developed to appeal to distinct target audiences

Introduction 1.1 Scope The aim of this book is to describe how a simple reflecting telescope can be made with the materials and facilities available in India. As the primary goal is to popularize telescope making‚ only the most primitive (but effective) constructions will be considered; the emphasis will be on the practical aspects of telescope making. Some excellent books on this subject are in print (see‚ for example‚ the Bibliography). Yet few people have easy access to these books as they

Adventures visited our school to show to us the outer space. They have made some activities that will enlighten the query minds and thoughts of the students about the outer space. To widen the knowledge we have already gained. By giving some explanation about our universe‚ what composes them and what is the thing that surrounds them. I am one of the students who join the voyager. I am very amazed about the universe based on what I have seen and learned especially on the Planetarium because they have showed

was known as the telescope. It revealed the cosmos in a different way than our naked eye could ever perceive. The telescope opened doors to countless stars‚ nebulae‚ galaxies‚ and a slew of never before seen wonders. With its creation came limitations and caused the need to improve and upgrade the methods in which the telescope functioned and find new ways of viewing the heavens.There are three main types of telescopes; refractor telescope‚ reflector telescope and compound telescope‚ also known as

Although any telescope (or steadily-held binoculars) will allow the phases of Venus to be seen‚ the planet is a notoriously difficult one to observe‚ for three main reasons. Firstly‚ whenever the planet is visible (shortly before sunrise or after sunset) it is positioned at a low altitude (angle above the horizon) where it is immersed in haze and atmospheric turbulence‚ which adversely affects the quality of the image seen in the telescope. Consequently most telescopic observers prefer to view the

The Unprecedented Impact of the Telescope The telescope has had a significant impact on everything related to astronomy and it has changed the world forever. There have been thousands of discoveries made using numerous types of telescopes‚ and it has enabled us to do things that would have never been possible without it. The telescope has allowed us to see with our own eyes what has always been outside of our world‚ but there is still much more to be discovered. People have always been intrigued

Introduction The telescope is an instrument which increases our ability to observe far away objects through the collection of electromagnetic radiation‚ the most prevalent type of telescope is the optical telescope which collects light‚ however there are other kinds of telescopes which collect UV and X -Rays. Optical telescopes use lenses to redirect light to a specified point. Different lenses are used for different magnifications of celestial objects. This essay will be mainly discussing

THE HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE Telescopes have only been around for about 400 years. Since then‚ they have evolved quickly and helped astronomers make remarkable discoveries. Ground based telescopes were the first‚ but we needed a way to observe the cosmos in the vacuum of space‚ without the light pollution and atmosphere of earth. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was the tool that helped propel astronomy to the next level. It has helped us understand the universe in new ways‚ but Hubble

Hubble Telescope The Hubble Telescope is an orbiting telescope that provides clear images from space. It is a reflecting telescope and gathers light with a mirror 94 inches in diameter. It is named after an American Astronomer‚ Edwin Hubble who made important astronomic discoveries in the 1920’s. Pictures taken by the Hubble Telescope include: stars surrounded by disks‚ galaxies‚ colliding galaxies‚ and evidence that most galaxies have black holes in their centre. The Hubble Telescope is in orbit
