tehnoloogia, mis muudab teleskoobi peegli kuju, kõrvaldamaks Maa atmosfääri turbulentsusest tingitud moonutusi
technology used to improve the performance of optical systems by reducing the effect of wavefront distortions
Good to know
This technology is used in astronomical telescopes and laser communication systems to remove the effects of atmospheric distortion, in microscopy, optical fabrication and in retinal imaging systems to reduce optical aberrations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_optics.

Astronomers have turned to a method called adaptive optics. Sophisticated, deformable mirrors controlled by computers can correct in real-time for the distortion caused by the turbulence of the Earth's atmosphere, making the images obtained almost as sharp as those taken in space. Adaptive optics allows the corrected optical system to observe finer details of much fainter astronomical objects than is otherwise possible from the ground.
