What else can I help you with?
What space instrument would you use to view Proxima Centauri?
To view things from far away is called a binocular
It looks into space and rhymes with rope?
uh...that would be telescope or dope.
What invention made it possible to look billions of light years across the universe?
In terms of inventions, the telescope would have made it possible to do this.
What would happen if the telescope had never been invented?
We cannot sea the space
How can you determine the light gathering power ratio between a 1 meter telescope and a 10 meter telescope?
The light gathering power is directly proportional to the light gathering area, so all you have to do is figure out the ratio of the areas of the two scopes. Another answer: Do you remember fourth grade arithmetic? Do you remember pi r square?
Which telescope is bigger refracting or reflecting?
"To build a large refracting telescope would require very strong supports to hold large enough lenses. These supports would tend to block out important light. So the refracting telescope is limited in its use. Today most large telescopes are reflecting telescopes." ~ BYU Home Study Astronomy course
When did newton invent the reflecting telescope?
I believe he invented it in 1688, I would double-check just to make sure.
Why are most modern telescopes reflecting telescopes?
Most modern telescopes are reflecting telescopes because reflecting telescopes are generally more cost-effective and easier to build at larger sizes compared to refracting telescopes. Reflecting telescopes also suffer less from chromatic aberration and can have a simpler design with fewer optical elements.
What would be the effect on magnification to increase the focal length of microscope and telescope?
The focal length of a telescope is directly related to the magnification in that the longer the focal length, the more magnification you get from the telsceope. How the focal length of a telescope relates to the length of the telescope itself depends on the design of the telescope. In a refracting telescope, the focal length is approximately the length of the telescope. In a reflecting telescope, the focal length is roughly two time the length of the telescope.
How did Newton solve the problem of using an eyepiece with a reflecting telescope?
== == Newton did not invent the reflecting telescope. The first reflecting telescope is credited to Niccolò Zucchi in 1616. In 1668, Isaac Newton made significant improvements to the design resulting in a much improved reflecting telescope that still bears his name, the "Newtonian reflector." He did it because the refracting (lens) telescopes of the day suffered severe color aberration. (Different focal lengths of different colours of light resulting in a blurred image because all the colours can't be brought into focus at the same time.) Reflecting telescopes do not suffer from color aberation and Newton's improvements made them effective observing instruments. Although the colour aberration of refractors was partially solved by the invention of the achromatic lens in 1733 Newton's design remains in use to this day.
Best gun on cod5?
PSH 11 M1 Cabrine or fg 42 with scope actually i would use the mp40 with apeture
Is a light telescope the same as a refracting telescope?
Not exactly. A light telescope is a telescope that catches and shows visible light. The main light-gathering piece may either be a lens, in which case you would have a refracting telescope. Or - much more common with the larger telescopes - the main light-gathering piece is a parabolic mirror. In this case, it is a reflecting telescope. The largest refracting telescope is about 1.2 meters in diameter; all larger telescopes - currently up to about 8 meters - are parabolic mirrors.
How is a radio telescope different from both a reflecting and reflecting telescope?
Well, its simple, there are two things that are in common.... both telescopes have a eye peice and a radio telescope doesnt.... theres more to it and the radio telescope looks way diffrent then the regular ones..... Wow! What a non-answer this person has given! For one thing, radio telescopes look more like satellite dishes than traditional telescopes. Rather than operating on the visible light spectrum as a reflecting or refracting telescope would, radio telescopes gather information from the infrared light spectrum - radiation waves. These radiation waves are collected to form a picture of whatever the radio telescope is looking at. I'm not a scientist; I'm not an astronomy student. I just did a little bit of research that the original answerer obviously didn't do.

What are some telescopes names?
The two types are refractor and reflector. In a refracting telescope, the light comes in THROUGH a magnifying LENS where it is REFRACTED (bent) to focus the light into an objective lens. In a reflecting telescope, the light BOUNCES OFF a curved magnifying MIRROR , and then reflected again on a secondary mirror to direct the light into an objective lens. Among the advantages of a reflecting telescope are that in a refracting lens, the thickness of the lens can absorb some of the light, while a mirror reflects all of the light. Additionally, a reflecting telescope can "fold" the telescope into a much more compact instrument, which is essential with especially large devices. A large refracting telescope would be enormously heavy and cumbersome.
Which telescope uses a simple light path?
A refracting telescope uses the most direct light path, relying on lenses (rather than prisms and mirrors) to provide a focused image of the night sky.Its opposite would be the reflecting telescope.
