One of the most surprising discoveries first-time telescope owners will find is that images may appear upside-down or backwards depending on the type of telescope. The first thought is the telescope is broken - when in fact it is working perfectly normal. Depending on the type of telescope images may appear correct, upside-down, rotated, or inverted from left to right.
Why is this? Why would I want to see everything incorrectly? For astronomical viewing, it is not important whether an object is shown correctly. In space there is no up or down. Besides, Saturn is not something you see everyday and you would not know if it was upside-down or not. A Tree, Building, Person or an Automobile for example would be important to see correctly. When you view an automobile upside-down, you recognize that this is not correct. Lets talk about the different types of telescopes and how the orientation of the image is observed through them and what you can do to correct it for land use.
Refractor and Cassegrain telescopes will produce an image that is upside down when used without a diagonal. When a diagonal is used the image will be corrected right side up, but backwards from left to right. It will look like trying to read a sign in a mirror. There are special diagonals called Erect Image Prism diagonals that can correct the backwards image for land use.
Newtonian Reflectors will produce an image that is upside down and are not recommended for land use. There are no ways to correct this with a Newtonian Reflector.
The most common type of reflecting telescope produces an inverted image. However, it's possible for a reflecting telescope to produce an upright image, depending on exactly how the optics are arranged.
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
Whenever a real image is formed by a real object,the image is always inverted. for eg when light rays from infinity falls on convex lens it forms a real and inverted image at focal plane.
Metaphorically the eye interprets the image, but more precisely it is the brain which interprets the image, and the brain learns to do so in a functional manner. An inverted image would make it harder to understand what you are seeing, so the brain rotates it to be erect.
The image becomes inverted under the low power objective due to the design of the microscope and the way light rays are refracted and magnified by the lenses. The inverted image is a result of the optics in the microscope system.
no you cant see image its appers in waves

An inverted image is produced when light rays pass through a lens and form an image that is upside down relative to the object. This occurs because the lens refracts or bends the light rays, causing them to converge at a point and create an inverted image on the opposite side of the lens.

No, the image produced by a stereomicroscope is not inverted. Stereomicroscopes use two slightly different angles to create a three-dimensional view of the specimen, but they do not invert the image.

Real images produced by concave mirrors are inverted, while those produced by convex mirrors are typically upright. This occurs because light rays converge to form the real image in concave mirrors, resulting in an inversion of the image.
the images are clear and can be focused unlike a refracting telescope witch sags under its own weight causing images to be distortedAny telescope forms a real image. Otherwise, it's pretty useless as a telescope.Comments: Refracting telescopes are good these days. They should not sag. Also, Galileo's telescope formed a virtual image, and that wasn't useless.An important point about the image in a reflecting telescope is that it is inverted, as well as being a real image.
If the object lies beyond twice the focal length of a concave mirror, a real and inverted image is produced between the focal point and the mirror's center of curvature. The image is diminished in size compared to the object.
we do get inverted image at the ratina. But this inverted image itself is being treated as errected by our mind.
If an object's distance from the concave mirror is greater than the mirror's focal length, then the mirror image of it will be inverted. If the distance from the concave mirror is less than the focal length of the mirror, the image will not be inverted. No image will be produced if the distance from the mirror to the object is equal to the mirror's focal length.
The inverted or upside-down image is formed on the retina.
