Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Orrery

👉 Orrery is a type of telescope used to view the night sky. It consists of an optical system that allows the observer to see objects in the sky at different magnifications, such as magnifying the image of a star by 100 times, and then magnifying it even further by 2000 times with the aid of eyepieces or other instruments. The term "Orrery" is derived from the Latin word "orror," meaning "to see."
