Building A Reflector Telescope Any Ideas On How To Connect Mirrors Together To Form A 3 Mt Dia Concave Mirror To Build A Reflector Telescope?

Any ideas on how to connect mirrors together to form a 3 mt dia concave mirror to build a reflector telescope? - building a reflector telescope

And I would also like the size and depth of growth and shrinkage accountablility, etc. More

1). Segments = 9

2.) weight = 0988 tons of glass

3.) grinding and polishing costs = $ 265,000

4.) coating costs = $ 110,000

5.) Design and manufacture of micro-mirror
Adjusting the cylinder for each segment = $ 900,000

See www.astromart.com
View classifieds for manufacturers of telescopes
Check the properties of 20 inches, 24 inches and 28 inches of mirrors
Read the specifications and technical information on precision surfaces

Your question is somewhat larger than A 28
Inch mirror. Something so big would be a wide range of basic directions and "permanent residence".

My suggestion would be to buy and optical images video link two, three or four telescopes of 20 cm in a stated assembly with the software. Or do you keep your eyes and ears open for some, the Observatory telescope in the market update for sale.

I segmented mirror telescopes are outside the scope of the Amateur Telescope Making. Controlled by the Keck telescope compatible computer to keep each segment is positioned with a tolerance of 4 nanometers. If you can not, is the only problem of finding the remains of the off-axis parabolic mirror.

The simple answer is that if the name be of your father of Bill Gates or the like, not in a position to remove them. To create an instrument, it would be more than 100 specialists in the hire of 3-5 years. That alone will cost about 30-50 million. Do you have this kind of gambling?

Except ... If you own a mountain top to put this thing on? Even if an instrument like this, it would be almost useless if you build an observatory in 6000-8000 "high and 50 km from the nearest town.

Now that said, that could theoretically be constructed for three periods of 10 'a three-arm interferometer to the mirror and get the resolution interferometric mirror 20-50m.

But this is purely theoretical, because if it is almostAbility to do so, he would not get help from Yahoo.

Am I right? Of course I am.
