Collimation \Col`li*ma"tion\, n. [Cf. F. collimation, fr. a
   false reading (collimare) for L. collineare to direct in a
   straight line; col- + linea line. Cf. {Collineation}.]
   The act of collimating; the adjustment of the line of the
   sights, as the axial line of the telescope of an instrument,
   into its proper position relative to the other parts of the
   instrument.

   {Error of collimation}, the deviation of the line collimation
      of an astronomical instrument from the position it ought
      to have with respect to the axis of motion of the
      instrument.

   {Line of collimation}, the axial line of the telescope of an
      astronomical or geodetic instrument, or the line which
      passes through the optical center of the object glass and
