What part does light play in a telescope?

Answer 1

It is so that you can see things that are far off as though they are a lot closer. So when Galileo decided to turn a telescope on Jupiter he discovered the four moons. But he was dead against anyone else's discoveries.

Answer 2

Light is essential in a telescope as it allows the telescope to gather and focus incoming light to create an image. The primary function of a telescope is to collect and magnify light from distant celestial objects, making them more visible and detailed. Different types of telescopes use various methods to gather and focus light, such as mirrors or lenses, to create an image for observation.

Answer 3

The invention of the telescope is very unique. It is used for seeing faraway objects like planets or moons, stars etc. There are also different types of telescopes like the Hubbles Space Telescope, it is huge but it can spot as far as the drawf planet Pluto.

Answer 5

many such as magnifying

They take objects that are at a distance and magnify them using mirrors and/or lenses.

the use of a telescope is so you can see in to space clearly

Answer 6

a telescope is used for seeing far away objects like the stars and its importance are A telescope is an instrument that aids in the observation of remote objects by collecting electromagnetic radiation (such asvisible light). The first known practical telescopes were invented in the Netherlands at the beginning of the 1600s (the 17th century), using glass lenses. They found use in terrestrial applications and astronomy.

Answer 7

A telescope is an optical instrument comprised of a series of mirrors or lenses in order to gather more light with a higher resolution and magnification than the naked eye. It is primarily used by astronomers to seek out new planets and new stars and to research the sun. Laymen can use a telescope to view planets and other things in space.

Answer 8

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.

Answer 9

A telescope does two things. It gathers light from faint distant objects and it magnifies those objects. There are different telescope designs to do this, but the basic idea remains the same in all of them - a lens or mirror gathers light and concentrates it so the image can be examined by a magnifying eyepiece.

Answer 10

The telescope is used to see the objects, present far beyond in space.
