 Telescope:Each Lens Has a Specific Function

Each lens has a specific function. The objective lens or primary mirror, collects the light radiated by the celestial object being viewed and brings it down to a focus point. The eyepiece lens picks up the sharp light from the focus point and disperses it to the eyes' retina to view.The diameter of a lens in the Monocular Telescope determines how much light will be collected, and is termed the aperture. So the larger the lense the more light can be gathered. However image enlargement is dependent on the blending of the lens'. The eyepiece is the part of the telescope that does the magnification.

The prices of telescopes vary greatly. You can also buy different accessories to your telescope to increase the quality of the image seen. No matter which type of telescope you buy the objective is the same, and that is to view objects that are very, very far away. As with the rest of technological advancements, telescopes are only going to continue to evolve into becoming more and more powerful. Allowing us to see objects in space farther and farther away. This is truly exciting news we have been able to find other hospitable planets on solar systems millions of light years away. Only one can imagine what these great inventions of man will let us see in the future.
