The Once and Future Universe
With otherworldly eyes, the joint
Smithsonian-University of Arizona
Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT)
looks out from atop Mount Hopkins
near Tucson. The telescope's six
72-inch mirrors, with resolving power equivalent to a single 272-inch mirror, were
designed to be integrated by lasers. But moths fluttering on the evening breeze
interrupted the beams. Now the images of cosmic objects are coordinated by
a video system. The MMT is particularly suited to examine quasars, using their
ancient light to probe the most distant margins of space and time.
