    Star Diagonal: Used to change the angle of the light coming out of a telescope, for easier viewing. Herschel Wedge: Similar to a star diagonal with a wedge-shaped unsilvered prism reflector that reduces incoming light by up to 95% for solar viewing. Coma corrector a correcting lens used to reduce coma distortion in fast reflecting telescopes.

  3. Reflecting telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflecting_telescope

    A reflecting telescope (also called a reflector) is a telescope that uses a single or a combination of curved mirrors that reflect light and form an image. The reflecting telescope was invented in the 17th century by Isaac Newton as an alternative to the refracting telescope which, at that time, was a design that suffered from severe chromatic ...

    The "2001" part of the name was dropped over time. The Astroscan continued to be available after Edmund Scientific was acquired by Science Kit and Boreal Laboratories in 2001 with the telescope for sale on the "Edmund Scientific" website. Production and sales of the telescope ceased in 2013 when the mold for the plastic body broke.

  5. Optical telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_telescope

    The telescope is more a discovery of optical craftsmen than an invention of a scientist. [1] [2] The lens and the properties of refracting and reflecting light had been known since antiquity, and theory on how they worked was developed by ancient Greek philosophers, preserved and expanded on in the medieval Islamic world, and had reached a significantly advanced state by the time of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_reflector

    Light path in a Cassegrain reflecting telescope. The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catadioptric_system

    The Schmidt camera is a wide-field photographic telescope, with the corrector plate at the center of curvature of the primary mirror, producing an image at a focus inside the tube assembly at the prime focus where a curved film plate or detector is mounted. The relatively thin and lightweight corrector allows Schmidt cameras to be constructed ...
