Those telescopes, in which the observer, placed at the anterior extremity of the tube, looks direct into the tube and turns his back to the objects, were called by Herschel _front view telescopes_. ❋ Baden Powell (1819)
A problem with this kind of telescopes is that the flux of muons from the cosmic ray interactions in the sky above the telescopes is by far larger than the expected amount of muons from neutrino interactions. ❋ Unknown (2005)
The positive refractive indices of normal materials necessitate the use of curved lenses, which inherently distort some of the light that passes through them, in telescopes and microscopes. ❋ Unknown (2007)
One of them is the coelostat, the instrument used in telescopes to keep the images of the stars in place for arbitrarily long periods of exposures. ❋ Unknown (2005)
Mr. Dawes saw that the instruments must be of great excellence, and the outcome of the matter was that he ordered one or more telescopes from the American maker. ❋ Simon Newcomb (1872)
If you want big telescopes, that is far easier done with on orbit assembly than it is done with an 8 meter fairing launcher. ❋ Unknown (2009)

She looked at you with eyes that were like tin telescopes. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Please note that this was long before the first telescopes, which is why he did his measuring with large, accurate versions of those instruments that ships 'captains had been using for many years. ❋ Heather McDougal (2007)
Trunks were strapped on the back of the coach and inside with the mistress were boxes and baskets and bundles, suitcases and two of those abominations known as telescopes, from which articles of clothing were bursting forth. ❋ Emma Speed Sampson (1907)
The distance between the two lines varies from about 360 miles as a maximum down to the smallest limit distinguishable in our large telescopes, which is something less than thirty miles. ❋ Unknown (1876)
The captain and Mr Reardon were on the quarter-deck, conscious that savages as the Chinese or Formosan pirates were, they probably did not despise the barbarian instruments known as telescopes, and that most likely every movement on board the _Teaser_ was being watched. ❋ George Manville Fenn (1870)
The very first delegation to China, dispatched by King George III in 1792, brought gifts such as telescopes, clocks, a spring suspension coach and airguns. ❋ Patrick Wintour In Beijing (2010)
From the laws of reflection and refraction, one can determine the behavior of optical devices such as telescopes and microscopes. ❋ Unknown (2007)
Other steps taken are to provide all secondary schools with tools such as telescopes and others that will enhance the student's understanding of outer space. ❋ Unknown (2007)
A greater whole I can only imagine, create myths, stare at through perception extenders such as telescopes or microscopes, worship, or express awe in some other way, or just exist in or with. ❋ Unknown (2007)
To understand why we play games requires first determining what kind of telescopes to build and choosing a direction to clearly observe the emotions in these player experiences. ❋ Unknown (2005)
