Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope - A Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope, invented by Bernhard Schmidt, is a catadioptric telescope. This type of telescope is advantageous because it combines the long focal length of the refracting telescope with the lower cost per aperture of the reflecting telescope.
Microvariability and Oscillations of STars telescope - The Microvariability and Oscillations of STars telescope or the MOST space observatory is Canada's first and (as of mid-2005) only space telescope. It is also the smallest space telescope in the world.
Sky & Telescope - Sky & Telescope is a monthly magazine providing articles and information on all aspects of astronomy, space exploration, telescope equipment, and amateur telescope making and use. The articles are intended for the lay reader, but are not overly simplified.
