Yes, the Vatican Observatory Research Group operates the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope, one of the telescopes that is located at the Mount Graham International Observatory in Arizona.
Arizona is the US state with the most telescopes. The most famous telescope in AZ is the Large Binocular Telescope.
Hawaii is the state with the largest collection of telescopes at the Maunakea Observatories, located on the Big Island. Maunakea is considered one of the best astronomical sites in the world due to its high elevation and clear skies, making it ideal for stargazing and astronomical research.
Hawaii is home to the most telescopes because of its ideal weather and high-altitude locations, offering clear and stable viewing conditions for astronomy research. Mauna Kea, in particular, is a popular site for astronomical observatories due to its high elevation and minimal light pollution.
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.

Tucson, Arizona, is home to numerous telescopes due to its clear skies and dry climate, which are ideal for astronomical observations. Prominent facilities include the Kitt Peak National Observatory, which hosts multiple telescopes, and the Mount Lemmon SkyCenter. In total, there are over a dozen major telescopes in the region, along with several smaller observatories and research facilities. The exact number can vary as new projects are developed or existing ones are modified.
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes

No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
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).
At a store for telescopes!
There is no Vatican Island. However, the Vatican is an 'island' in the middle of the city of Rome.
