Refracting Telescope (Refractor)


	Refracting Telescope (Refractor)
	Advantages No reflection or interruption in the path of light Gathers more light than the human eye can Far away objects look clearer, brighter and bigger (magnifiyed)	Disadvantages Colours cannot focus at one point If opened up, dust can get in easily Image is very faint - some of the light reflects off the lense Large leneses needed to improve magnificantion - can be very hard to do perfectly Blurry Images - diffrenet wavelengths refracting by different amounts - Chromatic Aberration
	Evaluation

Colours cannot focus at one point
If opened up, dust can get in easily
Image is very faint - some of the light reflects off the lense
Large leneses needed to improve magnificantion - can be very hard to do perfectly
Blurry Images - diffrenet wavelengths refracting by different amounts - Chromatic Aberration
