Au Texas, le télescope Hobby-Eberly (HET) - une coopération États-Unis et Allemagne-a vu sa première lumière à l'automne 1997. Son miroir de 11 m, semblable à ceux des télescopes Keck, est composé de 91 petits miroirs hexagonaux d'une taille de 1 mètre, orientés de sorte à lui donner une courbure sphérique.
