Lightweight, low cost, portable 1 to 2 meter telescopes are being developed by the Alt-Az Initiative, an enthusiastic group of amateur telescope makers, instrumentalists, and professional astronomers pushing the state-of-the-art for the fun of it. They combine their own ideas with high tech ideas borrowed from giant mountaintop telescopes. This book is a snapshot in time of their development efforts. Some will pan out. Others will fall by the wayside. Read about their adventures. You may be inspired to join them! The Alt-Az Telescope, Mirror, and Instrument Developments Edited by Russell M. Genet, Jolyon M. Johnson, and Vera Wallen Foreword by Richard Berry
