The BITA telescope: a first impression
Abstract:
The Bilevel Telemicroscope Apparatus (BITA) is a new galilean telescope designed to offer improved cosmesis, weight, field of view and spatial orientation over more traditional spectacle-mounted telescopic systems. This paper describes the characteristics of the new telescope and presents two cases where the BITA was successfully prescribed.

Light Acquisition
In order to produce glucose, plants need to capture sufficient light energy. Many modern plants have evolved leaves specialized for light acquisition. Leaves can be only millimeters in width or tens of meters wide, depending on the environment. Due to competition for sunlight, evolution has driven the evolution of increasingly larger leaves and taller plants, to avoid shading by their neighbors with contaminant elaboration of root architecture and mechanisms to transport water and nutrients.
