Most optical magnifying units use compound lenses. Lenses that are made to focus light onto a spot or spread it out. A combination of them makes the best optics. Lenses are ground as convex and concave.

∙ 8y agoBasically a telescope has two jobs, one to gather light and secondly to magnify that light. So telescopes enable us to gather more light, and the bigger the telescope, the more light (and therefore the fainter the object) the more light is gathered.

But large telescopes have made it possible to detect objects that are more than
13 billion light years away.

∙ 8y agoThe telescope has a large opening (larger than our eyes), which gathers light, making it possible to see objects that are dimmer than those that can be seen with our naked eyes. Another thing the telescope does is show things larger than what we see with our naked eyes.

How many kilometer distance can a telescope cover?
Like the human eye which can see distant constellations a tekescope can see objects many light years away!
What is the use of telescope?
many such as magnifyingThey take objects that are at a distance and magnify them using mirrors and/or lenses.the use of a telescope is so you can see in to space clearly
What Instrument that makes small distant objects visible?
That sounds like the description of a telescope. However, please note that the distance objects need not be "small"; a galaxy, for example, is incredibly large, but most galaxies are so far away that we can still not see them without the help of a telescope.
How do you see objects in space?
Use a telescope.
What is meant by short sightedness?
The inability to see the distant objects is referred to as short sightedness.Short sightedness refer to the inability to see very distant objects.
What telescope is used to see deep sky objects?
Just about any good telescope can be used to see deep sky objects. Of course, the more power a telescope has, the better the viewing will be (compared to a smaller piece of equipment). Shallow sky objects are things like an eclipse, or something "close" to earth (within the solar system). Deep sky objects lie outside our solar system, so using a telescope with a fairly large objective is a perferred choice.
How the invention of the telescope and the microscope influenced your advancements in science?
You can see distant and tiny objects. We would not know of cells or microorganisms without microscopes, and we would know little about space without telescopes.
Who developed the modern telescope for space exploration?
The first telescope was invented by Galileo.
