The telescope was invented first in 1608.
To observe a very faint star a large telescope is better than a small one.
It is very close to the size of a city bus.
Both are designed as multiple-mirrored reflectors.
The letters VLT stand for "Very Large Telescope". This is actually the name of a telescope in Cerro Paranel in Atacampa Desert.
it is a reflector telescope
The Dobsonian telescope was designed with a large objective diameter to observe very faint deep sky objects. It was originally designed from readily available components to provide a large yet still portable low-cost option for telescope users.
he was very smart, and his eyes were made from telescope lense
Southern African Large Telescope was created in 2005.
The National New Technology Telescope and the Very Large Telescope are both advanced astronomical observatories designed to provide detailed images and data of celestial objects. They boast cutting-edge technology and large mirror sizes to capture clear and high-resolution images of the universe. These telescopes are crucial tools for astronomers to conduct groundbreaking research and observations in the field of astronomy.
Reflector.
Galileo made his telescope in 1609, based on descriptions of instruments made in the Netherlands a year earlier. Despite what a depressingly large number of people would have you believe, he did not invent the telescope (though his was arguably an improvement upon the earlier ones).
"To build a large refracting telescope would require very strong supports to hold large enough lenses. These supports would tend to block out important light. So the refracting telescope is limited in its use. Today most large telescopes are reflecting telescopes." ~ BYU Home Study Astronomy course
