Green Bank Telescope

As an azimuth-elevation mounting telescope, the azimuth adjustments are driven by four trucks with four wheels each on a 210-foot (64 m) diameter rail. The 16 thirty-horsepower motors can change azimuth at the rate of up to 40 degrees per minute. Azimuth axis is also supported by a pintle bearing at the center point of the azimuth track.
