Why are reflecting telescope and refracting telescope considered as optical telescope?
"Optical", in this case, simply means that they work with light.
Who invented the telescope in 2010?
The telescope was invented in 1608 not 2010. See related question.
Where was the first optical telescope built?
The Englishman, Leonard Digges (1520-1559), from Bartham in Kent, UK, invented the Theodolite in 1551...The main component of a Theodolite is a small but powerful refracting telescope, so he was almost certainly the very first person in the world to invent the refracting telescope. However, it is known that he also invented the reflecting telescope shortly afterwards. In 1608, Hans Lippershey, a German born Dutch citizen invented a refracting telescope in Middelburg, Netherlands. Galileo's model a year later was a considerable improvement upon Lippersheys design but it came almost 60 years after Digges's invented his telescope. The Gregorian reflecting telescope was invented by Scottish mathematician and astronomer James Gregory and his design was first published in 1663. Isaac Newton invented the Newtonian reflecting telescope in 1668, 117 years after Digges invented his. The design of the Cassegrain telescope was first published on April 25th 1672 and its invention is attributed to Laurent Cassegrain (1629-1693), a Catholic priest from Chartres, France. There were no real major advances in telescope designs until the Schmidt telescope was invented, by German optician Bernhard Schmidt, in 1930. The Maksutov telescope was patented in 1941 by Russian optician Dmitri Maksutov.
Who was the telescope 1st invented by?
Galileo first invented what is recognized as the telescope.
Who invented telescope?
The telescope was invented by Hans Lippershey, a Dutch eyeglass maker, around the early 17th century. Although the exact origin of the telescope is debated, Lippershey is often credited with its invention.
Who invented the optical light telescope?
me
What year was the non optical telescope invented?
The non-optical telescope, primarily radio telescopes, were invented in the 1930s. One of the first and most notable radio telescopes was built by Karl Guthe Jansky in 1931.
Is theHubble telescope is an optical telescope?
The Hubble Space Telescope has a number of instruments, but the primary one is an optical telescope.
Why are reflecting telescope and refracting telescope considered as optical telescope?
"Optical", in this case, simply means that they work with light.
Which is the best telescope?
optical
What kind of telescope are most of the large optical telescope?
Reflector.
What is the advantage of using a non-Optical telescope over an optical telescope?
See things that don't shine in the visible spectrum.
How do radio telescope different from optical telescope?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
Where can you get the optical components to repair an old telescope?

Why doesnt the surface of a radio telescope have to be as flawless as the surface of a mirror in an optical telescope?
The surface of a radio telescope doesn't have to be as flawless as the surface of an optical telescope because the radio telescope is collecting radio waves, something that will not be affected by faults in the glass. Optical telescopes, on the other hand, are collecting light, where faults in the surface can interfere with the image.
Who invented the astronomic telescope?
Galileo galilei invented the astronomic telescope Galileo galilei invented the astronomic telescope
Who is credited with inventing the first Gregorian refracting telescope?
The Gregorian refracting telescope was invented by Scottish mathematician and astronomer James Gregory in the 17th century. He designed this telescope to address some of the optical issues of the existing telescopes at that time.
