p. pr. & vb. n.
of Telescope
v. t.
To cause to come into collision, so as to telescope.
n.
A powerful brass instrument of the trumpet kind, thought by some to be the ancient sackbut, consisting of a tube in three parts, bent twice upon itself and ending in a bell. The middle part, bent double, slips into the outer parts, as in a telescope, so that by change of the vibrating length any tone within the compass of the instrument (which may be bass or tenor or alto or even, in rare instances, soprano) is commanded. It is the only member of the family of wind instruments whose scale, both diatonic and chromatic, is complete without the aid of keys or pistons, and which can slide from note to note as smoothly as the human voice or a violin. Softly blown, it has a rich and mellow sound, which becomes harsh and blatant when the tones are forced; used with discretion, its effect is often solemn and majestic.
n.
A telescope.
n.
The passage of a heavenly body over the meridian of a place, or through the field of a telescope.
n.
An instrument used for measuring the distance of an object from an observer; as, a telescope with a micrometer for measuring the apparent diameter of an object whose real dimensions are known.
a.
Adapted for the observation of objects on land and on the earth; as, a terrestrial telescope, in distinction from an astronomical telescope.
n.
One who uses a telescope.
adv.
In a telescopical manner; by or with the telescope.
n.
An optical instrument used in viewing distant objects, as the heavenly bodies.
n.
A polariscope arranged to be attached to a telescope.
n.
A three-legged frame or stand, usually jointed at top, for supporting a theodolite, compass, telescope, camera, or other instrument.
n.
One of certain narrow, crooked valleys seen, by aid of the telescope, on the surface of the moon.
a.
Of or pertaining to a telescope; performed by a telescope.
a.
Seen or discoverable only by a telescope; as, telescopic stars.
a.
Having the power of extension by joints sliding one within another, like the tube of a small telescope or a spyglass; especially (Mach.), constructed of concentric tubes, either stationary, as in the telescopic boiler, or movable, as in the telescopic chimney of a war vessel, which may be put out of sight by being lowered endwise.
a.
To slide or pass one within another, after the manner of the sections of a small telescope or spyglass; to come into collision, as railway cars, in such a manner that one runs into another.
n.
The art or practice of using or making telescopes.
