Telescopes are typically housed in observatories, which can be located in remote areas to minimize light pollution and atmospheric disturbances. They may also be found in research institutions, universities, and even some private homes. Many modern telescopes, especially space telescopes like the Hubble, are placed in orbit to avoid Earth's atmospheric interference. Additionally, some portable telescopes are kept by amateur astronomers for personal use.

What are the major types of optical telescopes?

Ground-based telescopes, and space telescopes. Or: refracting telescopes (main collector is a lens), and reflecting telescopes (main collector is a mirror). Or: Home telescopes (small ones), and professional ones (larger and more expensive).

How are reflecting and refracting telescopes different?

Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes typically have a closed tube design which protects the mirrors from dust and other contaminants, while refracting telescopes are more prone to chromatic aberration. Reflecting telescopes are generally easier to manufacture at larger sizes compared to refracting telescopes.


Do digital telescopes exist?

No, digital telescopes don't exist. The telescope which we know are optical telescopes and what NASA uses are radiation based telescopes, or something related to radioactivity. As far I know, I've never heard about digital telescopes.
