The images harvested by these instruments may turn out no less ep

Plainly, an uncomfortably large gap had developed between Kolmogorov understanding and actual reality. The new theory smoothly closes that gap. In addition to providing a more c

Telescope Resolution and Optical Tolerance Specifications,images are shown for the Keck II instrument. Computer-generated binary star images are also shown for the future 39 m E-ELT instrument for various wavelengths in the range, 0.5–10 μm, with <10 mas resolution anticipated routinely in the optimum wavelength region.

By using star image cores as reference features for image stabilization and AO corrections (as opposed to the less stable light energy centroids) the sky coverage fraction provided by the limited number of suitably bright natural reference stars in the sky could expand by a factor in excess
