The differences are typically the method of mounting the scope, and possibly
the physical presentation of the eyepiece.
-- The mounting of an astronomical instrument typically has one axis that can be set
parallel to the Earth's axis, and a motor to turn the scope around it, so as to follow
the apparent "daily motion" of sky objects. A terrestrial telescope doesn't need to
rotate parallel to the Earth's rotation, and doesn't need to be clock-driven once you
find the object you want to watch through it.
-- An astronomical telescope is usually pointed in some degree of "upward"
direction, and for comfort's sake, the optical path often includes a 90-degree
turn, so that the eyepiece comes out perpendicular to the scope's axis, and you
don't have to scrunch down behind the tube and look up. A terrestrial scope is
typically pointed more nearly horizontal, and it isn't nearly as inconvenient to
look through it in the true direction in which it's pointed toward the target.
A Galilean Telescope is also an Astronomical Telescope so it is just a subset of Astronomical Telescopes.
An erecting lens is used in an astronomical telescope to right the image for terrestrial viewing. It can be placed between the objective and the ocular or be integrated in the eyepiece. Best regards Torbjoern
a major difference the huble space telescope is in orbit while the regular is in use only on the ground
An aquatic ecosystem is based on water, and a terrestrial ecosystem is based on land.
A refracting telescope uses lenses to gather and focus light, while a reflecting telescope uses mirrors. Reflecting telescopes are often preferred for large astronomical telescopes because mirrors can be made larger and more easily than lenses.

radio telescope detects radio waves and a light telescope views light waves.
A Reflecting telescope has a lot of zooming technologies and the High Power telescope is highly powered.

one is for weather and one does gps signals...

Those are, in fact, identical down to the finest detail.
Amphibians can live both on land and water
A refracting or refractor telescope is a dioptric telescope that uses a lens as its objective to form an image. The refracting telescope design was originally used in spy glasses and astronomical telescopes but is also used in other devices such as binoculars and long or telephoto camera lenses.There are two basic types of telescopes, refractors and reflectors. The part of the telescope that gathers the light, called the objective, determines the type of telescope. A refractor telescope uses a glass lens as its objective. The glass lens is at the front of the telescope and light is bent (refracted) as it passes through the lens. A reflectortelescope uses a mirror as its objective. The mirror is close to the rear of the telescope and light is bounced off (reflected) as it strikes the mirror
Binoculars have one tube for each eye while a telescope only has one tube.
