    An optical telescope gathers and focuses light ... Some telescopes cannot achieve the theoretical surface brightness of 100%, while some telescopes can achieve it ...

  3. Cosmic distance ladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_distance_ladder

    The surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) method takes advantage of the use of CCD cameras on telescopes. Because of spatial fluctuations in a galaxy's surface brightness, some pixels on these cameras will pick up more stars than others. As distance increases, the picture will become increasingly smoother.

    apparent brightness as a supernova impostor in April 1843 −0.72: star Canopus: seen from Earth 2nd brightest star in night sky [46] −0.55: planet Saturn: seen from Earth maximum brightness near opposition and perihelion when the rings are angled toward Earth [42] −0.3: Halley's comet: seen from Earth Expected apparent magnitude at 2061 ...

  5. f-number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number

    The brightness of the projected image (illuminance) relative to the brightness of the scene in the lens's field of view decreases with the square of the f-number. A 100 mm focal length f /4 lens has an entrance pupil diameter of 25 mm. A 100 mm focal length f /2 lens has an entrance pupil diameter of 50 mm.

  7. Telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescope

    Optical telescopes increase the apparent angular size of distant objects as well as their apparent brightness. For the image to be observed, photographed, studied, and sent to a computer, telescopes work by employing one or more curved optical elements, usually made from glass lenses and/or mirrors , to gather light and other electromagnetic ...
