The Present and Future of the Telescope of Moderate Size /
Covering the astronomical work achieved with telescopes of moderate size, this volume indicates how recent developments in electronics are making it possible for these telescopes to cope with problems formerly attacked only by the largest instruments. Because the future accomplishments of the telesc...
