Refraction
When light travels through the lens of a telescope, the lens refracts the light, causing it to converge to a focal point where the image is formed. The lens magnifies the image, allowing distant objects to appear closer and clearer. This process enables astronomers to observe celestial objects with greater detail and clarity.
Yes, a telescope with incoming light passing through glass does refract. The glass lenses or mirrors in a telescope refract light as it passes through, focusing the light to form an image.
The sun gives off light through a process called nuclear fusion in its core. This light then travels through space and reaches Earth, where some of it is reflected off surfaces like clouds, water, and sand.
1 light hour like how a light year is how far light travels in a year.
Light travels faster through space than through a window. In a vacuum, such as space, light travels at its maximum speed of approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. When light passes through a window, it encounters a material medium (glass) which slows it down due to refraction, resulting in a reduced speed.

All colors of light travel at the same speed in a vacuum, including through a telescope lens. The speed of light is determined by the medium it travels through; in air or a lens, all colors of light travel at the same speed.

If light travels through an object, it is still called light. If you want to specify, you might say "light travelling through an object".

The distance light travels in a year is called light-year
No, light does not make noise when it travels through a vacuum.
The material through which a wave travels is called a medium.
It is called a refracting telescope.
That telescope you are refering to is called a refracting telescope.
