Check out this unique telescope:

//dunlap.utoronto.ca/instrumentation/dragonfly/

It's composed of "eight Canon 400/2.8 lenses coupled to science-grade CCD cameras." It's at least 10x better at detecting low-brightness objects than the best Earth-based "conventional" large telescopes. This is because of the optimized internal baffling and nano-coatings on the lens elements. I emphasize that these are off-the-shelf Canon 400/2.8 Lenses!
