it is made out of salt
Salt is not itself a good substrate to build a telescope on. However to get areas of salt on the surface of the land you need very dry conditions and this means that the skys will be mostly cloud free - just what you need to get a view of the stars.
by putting a little drop of water on some salt under a telescope ;-)

You can clean a brass telescope. Over a duration of time, brass starts to oxidize. To remove this, can use vinegar and salt. You can also use a concoction of chemicals that is premade, usually by a company that specializes in brass.

How SALT was fananced
yes i think it does because it is a refracting lens telescope like the telescope build in Yerkes observatory in 1671 .

Could be wrong...I could be wrong, but I thought that it stood for, "Strategic, Air, and Land Treaty." AnswerStrategic Arms Limitations Treaty AnswerSouthern African Large Telescope. It is a multiple-mirror based telescope in world-famous observatory post in Sutherland. The URL is: http://www.salt.ac.za/ It stands forStrategicArmsLimitationsTalk

The SALT telescope is located near Sutherland in the Northern Cape for several reasons: first, the region has exceptionally clear skies with minimal light pollution, which is ideal for astronomical observations. Second, its high altitude (about 1,800 meters) reduces atmospheric interference, allowing for sharper images. Lastly, the dry climate of the area contributes to fewer clouds and stable atmospheric conditions, enhancing the telescope's observational capabilities.
It is a reflecting telescope
Telescope eyepieces are important of any visual telescope. It is the main part of the telescope and is what determines how the object will look like through the telescope.
