Where are telescopes found?

Optical telescopes are found through out the world. They have even been taken to space as in the Hubble Telescope. The Optical telescope is the main telescope used by amateur astronomers. They are used in Gardens through out the world. Professional optical telescopes are generally placed on the very top of mountings. This is to reduce the amount of distortion caused by the atmosphere. The Keck observatory for example is at an altitude of 4.2 km atop the summit of Mauna Kea on Hawaii.


How are reflecting and refracting telescopes different?

Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes typically have a closed tube design which protects the mirrors from dust and other contaminants, while refracting telescopes are more prone to chromatic aberration. Reflecting telescopes are generally easier to manufacture at larger sizes compared to refracting telescopes.


What have telescopes discovered and found out?

Telescopes have helped discover many things in space that are not visible such as some of the outer planets of our solar system.


Are telescopes found in space Yes or No?

Yes, if you look in the right place.


Compare reflecting and refracting telescopes?

Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes are typically less affected by chromatic aberration, while refracting telescopes can be more prone to this issue. Reflecting telescopes are generally more cost-effective for larger apertures.


Do Professional astronomical telescopes generally have a much greater magnification than the telescopes you can buy in stores?

Yes, professional astronomical telescopes typically have greater magnification capabilities compared to telescopes sold in stores. This allows astronomers to observe celestial objects with greater detail and clarity. Professional telescopes also have larger apertures and specialized optics to gather more light and enhance image quality.


Why are big telescopes found on top of mountains?

The Earth's atmosphere provides interference to optical telescopes because the molecules in the air scatter and disrupt light. Many telescopes are placed at high elevation because the atmosphere is thinner and will cause less interference.


How long has the telescope been around?

The invention of the telescope is generally attributed to Hans Lippershey in 1608. The first practical telescopes were developed by Galileo Galilei in 1609. So, telescopes have been around for over 400 years.
