List of largest optical reflecting telescopes

Overview of the largest optical telescopes

Note: Some of the data given in different sources for the completion of one year or more may differ. This is usually because that " commissioning " is defined in different ways ( "first light " [ first recordings, often with makeshift cameras ], completion of the construction, dedication or scientific use).
