Chapter 6: The Tools of the Astronomer

Chapter 6: The Tools of the Astronomer. Telescopes gather light and concentrate it. . They come in two types: Reflectors and Refractors. Reflectors use mirrors to reflect the light to a focus. Refractors use lenses to bend the light to a focus.

Telescopes & Light

Telescopes & Light. The Powers of a Telescope. Light Gathering Power : Astronomers prefer *large* telescopes. A large telescope can intercept and focus more starlight than does a small telescope. A larger telescope will produce brighter images and will be able to detect fainter objects. .
