In the stable homotopy category of -local spectra for some prime number , there are two collections of similarly behaved spectra: the Morava K-theories and spectra which are the telescopes of finite spectra under their -maps. The former are usually denoted and the latter are often denoted . The telescope conjecture is that localization at and localization at are (Bousfield) equivalent.
