ATM Rich Field Theory

["Asaf S.-T." <asafs@ibm.net>]

Is this thory I thought of right:

If I'm not wrong, a telescope is an RFT because, what the point of the 
focus is closr to the mirror, the angle of the focusing point is bigger, 
and also the Secondary is bigger, so you can see more stars.
So even if you have an f/100000 mirror, you can make it a rich field like 
this:


                              
                             Focus point
                                /   \  
                               /     \
                              /       \  <----- Put the focuser Closer to 
the Mirror!!!
                             \_________/



then, you need to measure the distance from where you put the secondary, 
till the focus point, and  use that length for how far you put the 
eyepiece away from the secondary. Now, the eyepiece will may be much far 
apart from the secondary, but you just made an RFT from a 
f/1000000 !!!!!

Is this possible?
