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.


Does the hubble space telescope use mirrors or lenses?

The Hubble Space Telescope uses mirrors to gather and focus incoming light. The primary mirror is 2.4 meters in diameter and collects light from celestial objects to produce high-resolution images. Mirrors are well-suited for space telescopes as they are more durable and easier to shape to precise specifications compared to lenses.

How do telescope Works?

Mirrors and lenses in telescopes bend and focus light to produce an image with more detail.


Does the space hubble telescope have a lens?

Yes, the Hubble Space Telescope does have a lens. It primarily uses a large primary mirror, which is 2.4 meters in diameter, to collect and focus light. This mirror works in conjunction with various smaller lenses and mirrors in its optical system to create clear images of astronomical objects. The combination of these components enables Hubble to capture high-resolution images across different wavelengths of light.


What instruments use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects?

A Telescope uses lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects. With the advancement in optical research we are capable to watch the stars and planets better than before. Our information about universe largely depend on telescopes.


Can mirrors cameras telescope and eye glasses refract light?

Mirrors don't refract, they reflect. All lenses, on the other hand, refract (bend) the light. All cameras have lenses, to focus the image; same for eyeglasses. Some telescopes have lenses, but others are collections of mirrors. Note that some few optical elements are lenses and mirrors - like prescription sunglasses with mirror coating.
