That’s truly a large scope.

I remember when 200-inches was the largest.

Seems like just yesterday. What is the largest scope on the planet right now?

Anyone know?

The GTC on the Canary Islands is 10.4 meters. The twin Keck telescopes are 10 meters. The largest telescope with a single mirror is the 8-meter Subaru Telescope.
