Does the diameter of a telescope control its magnification?
No, you can change the magnification of the telescope by simply changing the eyepiece. The two most important powers of the telescope, light-gathering power and resolving power, depend on the diameter of the telescope, but it does not control the magnification.
Why are telescope eyepieces an important part of any visual telescope?
Telescope eyepieces are important of any visual telescope. It is the main part of the telescope and is what determines how the object will look like through the telescope.
What size telescope do you need to see Saturn?
Try a 50X or 100X power telescope.
A telescope that suffers from chromatic aberration and has a low light gathering power is most likely?
a. a small diameter reflecting telescope.
What is the overhyped feature of telescope sales?
The magnification. What really matters about a telescope, the single most important piece of information, is the diameter of the main lens, or main mirror.The magnification.

What was one important thing that Galileo did?
He invented (or at least constructed the first known working version of) the telescope.
What is the difference between a High Power telescope and a Reflecting telescope?
A Reflecting telescope has a lot of zooming technologies and the High Power telescope is highly powered.

Why does the light gathering power of a telescope vary?
The light gathering power of a telescope is directly proportional to the area of the objective lens of the telescope.
What is the least important as a source of power for industry?
Oil
Why does the Hubble space take such clear pictures of deep space?
One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope. Of course, it is also a good telescope, i.e., well-built.One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope.

What appears as disks with help of a telescope?
All the planets, depending on the power of the telescope.
Which power of a telescope might be expressed as 0.5 seconds or arc?
which power of a telescope might be expressed as "0.5 seconds of arc"?
How many times bigger does the image appear in a refracting telescope?
That will depend on your telescope power.
What size telescope do you need to see Saturn?
Try a 50X or 100X power telescope.
How many convex lenses does a refracting telescope have?
At least two, but may have many. Depends on the design of the telescope.
