Don't confuse extremely large telescope[0] with Extremely Large Telescope[1].

Missing some, to cover the whole spectrum :)

Barely Acceptable Telescope

Mildly Average Telescope

Just Big Enough Telescope

Well, it goes both ways. If they were bigger they'd get more observational tasks targeted up to that limit.

On mobile so the links were squished and I opened each link individually...I appreciate saving "Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope" for last :)
