Book By Starlight and Moonlight with the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope

Download or read book By Starlight and Moonlight with the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope written by Warner and Swasey Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from By Starlight and Moonlight With the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope: Some Easy Astronomical Observations The objective is 2 inches in diameter, clear aperture. Two eye-pieces are provided, magnifying respectively 25 and 50 diam eters. The telescope tube and the alt-azimuth mounting are made of aluminum. The folding tripod is of carefully selected ash. All are contained in a neat leather-covered carrying case; total weight only twelve pounds. Weight of telescope with its tripod and mounting, apart from case, but six and a half pounds. The high quality of its optical equipment, and the simplicity and adequacy of its mechanical provisions, make it superior to any similar telescope upon the market for the camper, the traveler, the motor-tourist, the surveyor, or the marksman upon the rifle-range. It is especially adapted for porch, seaside and general use. While thus designed strictly as a terrestrial telescope, its purchasers have also found it of much interest and value in the field of amateur astronomy. It is not presented as - in the tech nical sense - an astronomical telescope; and yet its quality is so superior that its efficiency is actually greater than that of many larger astronomical telescopes heretofore offered to the public. The ease with which it can be moved from place to place in the observation of moon and stars, its sharp definition and breadth of field, combined with the precision and steadiness with which the instrument may be pointed and controlled, have brought many expressions of satisfaction from those who having first purchased it as a terrestrial telescope have subsequently tested it in their observations of celestial objects. To respond to the interest and the demand thus indicated, and to illustrate, for beginners, some of the simple astronomical uses of the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial, this little booklet has been prepared.

Book By Starlight and Moonlight With the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope

Download or read book By Starlight and Moonlight With the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope written by Warner and Swasey Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from By Starlight and Moonlight With the Warner Swasey Prism Terrestrial Telescope: Some Easy Astronomical Observations This Porro Prism instrument represents the highest development in Terrestrial Telescopes. Its relation to the ordinary telescope is the same as that of our Prism Binocular to the old type of field-glass. It is remarkable for its large field, brilliant illumination and clear definition. The objective is 2 inches in diameter, clear aperture. Two eye-pieces are provided, magnifying respectively 25 and 50 diameters. The telescope tube and the alt-azimuth mounting are made of aluminum. The folding tripod is of carefully selected ash. All are contained in a neat leather-covered carrying case; total weight only twelve pounds. Weight of telescope with its tripod and mounting, apart from case, but six and a half pounds. The high quality of its optical equipment, and the simplicity and adequacy of its mechanical provisions, make it superior to any similar telescope upon the market for the camper, the traveler, the motor-tourist, the surveyor, or the marksman upon the rifle-range.

It is not presented as - in the technical sense - an astronomical telescope; and yet its quality is so superior that its efficiency is actually greater than that of many larger astronomical telescopes heretofore offered to the public. The ease with which it can be moved from place to place in the observation of moon and stars, its sharp definition and breadth of field, combined with the precision and steadiness with which the instrument may be "pointed" and controlled, have brought many expressions of satisfaction from those who having first purchased it as a terrestrial telescope have subsequently tested it in their observations of celestial objects. To respond to the interest and the demand thus indicated, and to illustrate, for beginners, some of the simple astronomical uses of the Warner & Swasey "Prism Terrestrial," this little booklet has been prepared. Our long experience in making "Optik Tubes" of all sizes, from the great Lick and Yerkes Telescopes to the Telescopic Gun Sights, Range Finders, Sextants, etc., used by the Army and Navy, especially qualifies us to develop from both a scientific and practical standpoint, the highest type of Porro Prism Telescope.

Book Manual of Astronomy a Text Book

Download or read book Manual of Astronomy a Text Book written by Charles A. Young and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Astronomy a Text-Book The present volume has been prepared in response to a rather pressing demand for a text-book intermediate between the author's Elements of Astronomy and his General Astronomy. The latter is found by many teachers to be too large for convenient use in the time at their disposal, while the former is not quite sufficiently extended for their purpose. The material of the new book has naturally been derived largely from its predecessors; but everything has been carefully worked over, rearranged and rewritten where necessary, and changed and added to in order to bring it thoroughly up to date. The writer is under great obligations to many persons who have assisted him in various ways, especially to Professor Anne S. Young, of the astronomical department in Mt. Holyoke College, who has carefully read and corrected all the proof. He is greatly indebted also to D. Appleton & Co. for permission to use illustrations from The Sun, to Warner Swasey for photographs of astronomical instruments, and to numerous other friends who have kindly furnished material for engravings.
