Reflecting telescopes give a brighter, clearer image that refraactors in many cases. Add to that the fact that refractors become very impractical with objective lens sizes much above 40 inches, while reflectors can have mirrors of 200 inches and more.

What else can I help you with?

What are two types of telescopes and how they work?

there is a refractor and a reflector telescope. refrator is the narrow telescope that works just like a maginifying glass and the reflector telescope takes the image from the lense to the mirror in it's side and thus shows a image. both have their advantages, reflector the narrow telescope is good for viewing objects like planets and moons in the solar system, reflector the wide and short ones are good for stars, nebulas and other bodies out side of the solar system. most scientist and begineers prefer reflector though its a bit more expensive
