A reflecting telescope is different from a refracting telescope because a reflecting telescope uses a concave lens, a plane mirror, and a convex lens. While a refracting telescope uses two lens.

Retracting.
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.
They have many other different types of telescopes than just reflecting!!!! I have a refracting telescope myself. They also have other things like binoculars and microscopes
Light is found by reflecting telescopes and refracting telescopes are used to dected sound
they the same
There are two main types of telescopes: refracting telescopes and reflecting telescopes. Refracting telescopes use lenses to gather and focus light, while reflecting telescopes use mirrors. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, but both are used to observe distant objects in space.
Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to collect and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes are typically less affected by chromatic aberration, while refracting telescopes can be more prone to this issue. Reflecting telescopes are generally more cost-effective for larger apertures.
Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to gather and focus light, while refracting telescopes use lenses. Reflecting telescopes tend to be more compact and easier to support larger apertures, making them popular for professional astronomical research. Additionally, reflecting telescopes are less affected by chromatic aberration compared to refracting telescopes.
Not necessarily. Refracting telescopes can be large, but reflecting telescopes can also be quite large and often have larger apertures due to their design. The size of a telescope depends on its purpose and design specifications rather than whether it is refracting or reflecting.
The most serious astronomical research, such as that done by the Hubble Space Telescope, is done with reflecting telescopes.
