YERKES TELESCOPE
IN SECOND PLACE
Lens at Treptow Observa-
tory, Berlin, Most Power
full in World.

Trepsow Observatory, near Berlin, nov
boasts ne most powerful telescope in
the world.
DIT. Friedrich S Archenbold. director
Of the observatory, admits that the
lens Of this instrument IS smaller than
the telescope lenses of the Yerkes and
Lick observatories. but in spite Of that
il has a nagnifying power greater than
any yet built
The Yerkes lens has a diameter of 10i
cent meters. the Lick lens ninety-six cen
timeters, while the TreptOw instrument
has lens Of only seventy centimeters
in breadth. The Lick telescope magnifes
%. fold. vvhile the ArchenboId telescope
mas a power OF 5000 diameters under
favorable atmospheric and light condi-
tions.
TINS increase OF power with smaller
lens is explained by Prof. Archenboid
as possible through a greater focal dis
tancs. Thus. the length Of the Yerkes
teles cope is eighteen meters. that of the
Lick fifteen. while the Archenbold IS

workmanship and cost 1880 1t was

metal covering, so that the temperature

uent protected from vibrations caused

The apparatus weighs $50 pounds. and
is operated by electricity
THE DISTINGUISHING feature OF the
TreptOW Observatory Is That IT has III
