Is the design of radio telescopes very similar to the design of refracting telescopes?
no, reflecting telescopes.
Are optical telescopes much bigger then radio telescopes?
No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
How radio telescopes differ from optical telescopes.?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
What are the major types of optical telescopes?
Ground-based telescopes, and space telescopes. Or: refracting telescopes (main collector is a lens), and reflecting telescopes (main collector is a mirror). Or: Home telescopes (small ones), and professional ones (larger and more expensive).
Is refracting telescopes bigger then reflecting telescopes?
