La plupart des instruments astronomiques sont d'usage général, et leurs formes se réduisent à un petit nombre de modèles qui existent en toutes dimensions; ce sont les lunettes et les télescopes. Certaines observations bien définies, mais des plus courantes, se font au contraire à l'aide d'instruments très spécialisés, construits et mis en œuvre selon des principes communs et qui sont également très répandus. 1, record 2, French, - instrument%20astronomique
