The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer combines the light from both mirrors, allowing for much higher resolution observations than would be possible with each mirror on its own.

And astronomers have a brand-new, superpowerful eye with which to see the changing cosmos: the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in ...

In fact, an interferometer's resolution is the same as a single telescope with a mirror that covers the entire distance between the telescopes. It feels like magic, honestly, but it's true.

This is an image of the star WOH G64, taken by the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer (ESO’s VLTI). This is the first close-up ...

Engineers unpack the full-scale Engineering Development Unit Telescope for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna mission in a clean room at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md ...

NASA showed off a telescope prototype for a new gravitational wave detection mission in space. The telescope is part of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission led by the European ...

The so-called "Extremely Large Telescope" is being built on a mountaintop in the Andes at an elevation of about 3,000 meters. And it really is extremely large. The primary mirror will be 39 meters ...
