What telescope collects light with a mirror?
The type of telescope is called a reflector. There are multiple subtypes of reflectors like a dobsonian, newtonian, RC, etc. Check out my youtube video on how to work with pictures taken from a telescope. youtu.be/M7-vLeVhM9g
Which type of telescope did Galileo turn skyward in 1610?
Galileo used a reflecting telescope. A reflecting telescope uses two mirrors, one facing the sky, and one reflecting the light from the first mirror
What is used in a telescope to reflect light?
Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect light.
The largest optical telescope has four 8.2 meter?
Mirrors, The Hubble space telescope first had one big shaped mirror, which made the images blury so they sent up astronaughts and replaced it with 4 8.2 meter flat mirrors making the pictures more clear!
What telescope did Isaac Newton invent?
Optics is the study of the behavior of properties of light, and there were quite a few philosophers that inspired Newton such as Robert Boyle, Rene Descartes, Sir Frances Bacon, and especially Galileo Galilee. This should help..

What type of telescope is a reflecting telescope?
one which reflects of mirrors
What uses a lens and two mirrors?
Reflecting TelescopeA reflecting telescope uses a lens and two mirrors. The lens is positioned at the eyepiece, and thus the focus, which the two mirrors generated by specifically redirected light. There are two types of reflecting telescopes with one lens and two mirrors, the Newtonian Focus and the Cassegrain Focus.

How many mirrors does a reflecting telescope have?
A reflecting telescope only needs one mirror, the primary mirror which will focus incoming light to a single point. A digital telescope might place the digital recording media directly in front of the reflecting telescope without any additional mirrors (although perhaps some lenses). For practical purposes though, most optical telescope will have a secondary mirror that will either focus light straight back through a hole in the primary telescope mirror, or to the side of the telescope. Some telescopes, especially the large ones in observatories will have several mirrors directing the light path to the observer or recording equipment.
What is a reflector that uses more than one secondary mirror is called?
Reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's Often a secondary mirror is used to redirect the light into a more convenient viewing spot.
What does a telescope reflect?
A reflecting telescope is an optical telescope which uses mirrors to bring the light to a focus. The first one was designed by Isaac newton.
Do refracting and reflecting telescopes use visible light to view the images?
Those terms are most commonly used for optical telescopes. However, the same design can be used for non-visible frequencies; for example, radio telescopes of the "satellite dish" variety are essentially reflecting telescopes.
