A telescope that you can make out the colors clear.


How many time did Isaac Newton try to make light?

Isaac Newton did not try to make light. He described properties relating to light. He explained the colours of the Rainbow and designed the first reflecting telescope.


When did newton invent the reflecting telescope?

I believe he invented it in 1688, I would double-check just to make sure.


How did Isaac Newton make his Discovery?

Sir Isaac Newton didn't make the first telescope. He did however invent the first functionally effective reflecting telescope using a concave primary mirror and a flat diagonal secondary mirror. He built the telescope to improve his theories about light. This telescope bore advantages over the refracting telescope in that there was no longer color distortions developed by the lenses known as chromatic abberation.


Where did Isaac Newton make the Newtons Cradle?

Isaac Newton did not invent the Newton's Cradle. It was actually invented in 1967 by English actor and artist Simon Prebble. The toy demonstrates the principles of conservation of energy and momentum.

What things did Sir Isaac Newton work on?

Sir Isaac Newton is best known for his work in physics, particularly his laws of motion and universal gravitation. He also made significant contributions to mathematics, developing calculus independently of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. Additionally, Newton made advances in optics, studying the properties of light and inventing the reflecting telescope.


What was the big coincidence between Isaac Newton and Galileo?

Issac Newton was a guy who made gravity and helped Galileo make gravity when he made the telescope I know you are a kid so tell me I have a nerd friend right next to me.


How did Newton solve the problem of using an eyepiece with a reflecting telescope?

== == Newton did not invent the reflecting telescope. The first reflecting telescope is credited to Niccolò Zucchi in 1616. In 1668, Isaac Newton made significant improvements to the design resulting in a much improved reflecting telescope that still bears his name, the "Newtonian reflector." He did it because the refracting (lens) telescopes of the day suffered severe color aberration. (Different focal lengths of different colours of light resulting in a blurred image because all the colours can't be brought into focus at the same time.) Reflecting telescopes do not suffer from color aberation and Newton's improvements made them effective observing instruments. Although the colour aberration of refractors was partially solved by the invention of the achromatic lens in 1733 Newton's design remains in use to this day.
