What type of telescope uses lenses or mirrors to gather focus light energy?
the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
Which type of telescope uses lenses or mirrors to gather and focus light?
Optical!!
Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens?

Who built the first reflecting telescope in 1668?
Isaac Newton is credited with building the first practical reflecting telescope in 1668. This telescope used a curved mirror to gather and focus light, unlike traditional refracting telescopes which used lenses.
What is a tool that gathers light with mirrors and lenses called?
Cameras and reflecting telescopes gather light using mirrors and lenses.
Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens or a mirror?
A reflecting telescope gathers light with a mirror instead of a lens. The mirror reflects light to a focus point where the image is formed. This design eliminates chromatic aberration that can occur with lenses.
Which type of telescope did Galileo turn skyward in 1610?
Galileo turned a refracting telescope, which uses lenses to gather and focus light, skyward in 1610. This allowed him to make groundbreaking astronomical observations such as the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus.
