TL;DR: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) as discussed by the authors provides the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and non-luminous matter in the universe: a photometrically and astrometrically calibrated digital imaging survey of π sr above about Galactic latitude 30° in five broad optical bands to a depth of g' ~ 23 mag.

TL;DR: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDS) as discussed by the authors is a two-corrector Ritchey-Chretien design with a 2.5 m, f/2.25 m, a 1.08 m secondary, and one of a pair of interchangeable highly aspheric correctors near the focal plane, one for imaging and the other for spectroscopy.
