It is one of the largest optical telescopes in the world and combines a number of features that differentiate it from most telescope designs , resulting in greatly lowered construction costs .. telescope. telescope. largest optical telescopes. List of largest optical reflecting telescopes. For instance , the primary mirror is constructed from 91 hexagonal segments , which is less expensive than manufacturing a single large primary .. segments. Segmented mirror. Furthermore , the telescope 's main mirror is fixed at a 55 ° angle and can rotate around its base .. telescope. telescope. A target is tracked by moving the instruments at the focus of the telescope ; this provides access to about 70 -- 81 % of the sky at its location and allows a single target to be tracked for up to two hours .. telescope. telescope. The telescope is named for former Texas Lieutenant-Governor Bill Hobby and for Robert E. Eberly , a Penn State benefactor .. telescope. telescope. Bill Hobby. William P. Hobby, Jr.. Robert E. Eberly.

The instruments work at high , medium and low spectral resolution .. The low-resolution spectrograph is housed at the prime focus , while the medium and high-resolution spectrographs reside in the basement and the light is fed into them via a fiber-optic cable .. spectrograph. spectrograph. Since achieving first light in 1996 , the telescope has been used for a wide variety of studies ranging from the Solar System to stars in our galaxy and studies of other galaxies .. telescope. telescope.

The telescope has been used successfully to find planets orbiting around other stars by measuring radial velocities as precisely as 1 m / s .. telescope. telescope. radial velocities. radial velocity. Using the low-resolution spectrograph , the telescope has been used to identify Type Ia supernovae to measure the acceleration of the universe .. telescope. telescope. spectrograph. spectrograph. The telescope has also been used to measure the rotation of individual galaxies .. telescope. telescope. galaxies. galaxies. The telescope was upgraded for use in the Hobby -- Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment -LRB- HETDEX -RRB- , which will provide the first observations to allow narrowing of the list of possible explanations for dark energy .. telescope. telescope. dark energy. dark energy.

One of the advantages of this telescope design is that it was over 5 times more cost efficient for its aperture size than a more traditional design .. aperture. aperture. telescope. telescope. As reported in Nature of 28 November 2012 , astronomers have used the Hobby -- Eberly Telescope to measure the mass of an extraordinarily large black hole -LRB- with mass approximates 17 billion Suns -RRB- , possibly the largest black hole found so far .. extraordinarily large black hole.
