    Liquid telescopes on Earth have been a less-expensive alternative to a solid-mirror telescope. The Large Zenith Telescope is the largest liquid scope on Earth, using mercury as the liquid. It is 20% larger than the Hale observatory, but only cost 1/6th as much to build. Now NASA is considering putting a liquid scope on the moon, using something other than mercury as the liquid. All the components could be launched on one Titan rocket, erected at the poles, and make an extremely stable, powerful scope to view extremely distant objects.

    This is interesting… would these be Hubble-esque? Except for being limited in what could be reflected?

    Depending on what they decide to use as the liquid (some possible liquids won’t reflect as much ultraviolet as visible, and others won’t reflect as much microwave or infrared as visible), the only limiting element would be the detectors they decide to install. Since this won’t be under an atmosphere, it will be able to gather as much or more light than Hubble can (and in all wavelengths as well. Our atmosphere blocks a lot of the infrared and ultraviolet, plus wavelengths farther from the visible). The only drawback to a liquid scope is that you can’t really aim it that well. This will make long-duration observations problematic, if not impossible. Hubble, because it was space-based and a solid mirror, was able to be aimed at one point for very long times, therefore giving us views like the deep-sky survey (the one where they pointed Hubble at an apparently empty section of space, took a very long exposure, and saw several thousand dim galaxies).
