prime focus reflector
simplest possible telescope
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.
The Chandra telescope was built to observe X-rays.
The telescope you are referring to is likely a refracting telescope. In a refracting telescope, light enters through an objective lens which bends the light rays to a focal point where the image is formed. This type of telescope is commonly used in astronomy and for terrestrial viewing.
Yes, a Hershelian telescope is a type of reflecting telescope in which the primary mirror is tilted so the observer's head does not block the incoming light.

A reflecting telescope.
The Chandra telescope was built to observe X-rays.
It gathers more light than a refractor type of telescope can, of the same size.

The most powerfull type of telescope is the Radio telescope. Radio waves travel much further than light waves.
radiotelescope
the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
NuSTAR (the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array)is a space-based X-ray telescope.
Yes, a Hershelian telescope is a type of reflecting telescope in which the primary mirror is tilted so the observer's head does not block the incoming light.
