What are some facts about telescopes?
If you look through them the wrong way round, everything looks smaller!
What other kinds of radiation are detected by telescopes?
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
Most telescopes are telescopes?
refracting
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).
Where are telescopes generally found?
At a store for telescopes!
How do telescopes help us find out about the solar system?
you can see the planets, stars, sky, etc better and when you can see something clearer more facts about it become clear
Are space telescopes manned or unmanned satellites?
All space telescopes are unmanned - unless you want to count the small telescopes on the Shuttle or IIS as space telescopes.
What have telescopes found out?
telescopes have found out that im AWESOME
How are refraction telescopes and reflecting telescopes similar?
they the same
How are reflecting and refracting telescopes different?
Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes typically have a closed tube design which protects the mirrors from dust and other contaminants, while refracting telescopes are more prone to chromatic aberration. Reflecting telescopes are generally easier to manufacture at larger sizes compared to refracting telescopes.
