The main astronomical instruments are the armillary sphere, the triquetrum, the quadrant, the astrolabe, and the various kinds of telescopes. These instruments are all used to observe, measure, and study celestial bodies. They can be used to collect data on planets, galaxies, radiation, stars, nebulas, etc.
