What is the best observation of refracting light?

Some of the best observations of refracting light comes from Prisms. A Prisms splits visible light into all of the colors of the spectrum allowing an individual to see the different colors that make up a beam of light.


Is a telescope with incoming light passing through glass refracting?

What optical defects associated with refracting telescopes?

A defect that happens with lenses (refracting telescopes), but not with mirrors, is the chromatic aberration: lenses have a different index of refraction for different wavelengths of light, i.e. colors. Thus, if the telescope is optimized for a certain color, light of another color will be slightly distorted.

Can aberration occur in a mirror?

Chromatic aberration does not occur in a mirror because chromatic aberration is caused by the different colors of a light being bent different amounts. Mirrors do not care about the different colors as they only relfect the light instead of refracting it.

What is a refracting and a reflecting telescope?

A refracting telescope is a type of telescope that has a large thin lense at the front and a smaller thicker lense at the end where the eyepiece is. Refracting telescopes use lenses unlike reflecting telescopes that use mirrors to reflect the light. This is a good image of a refracting and reflecting telescope: [See related link]
