=== SDSS 2.5 m === [[File:SDSS (Crop of Apache-0110).JPG|thumb|upright|Enclosure of the SDSS]] The SDSS {{convert|2.5|m|in|abbr=on}} telescope is used for the [[Sloan Digital Sky Survey]], and began operating in 2000. It is a Ritchey-Chretien reflector on an alt-azimuth mount housed under a roll-off enclosure. It was designed with an unusually large 3Β° [[field of view]] to better support its primary task of [[Astronomical survey|surveying]] the entire sky.<ref name="SDSS25" />
