Telescope technology

Telescope technology involves devices that collect and magnify light from distant objects, allowing us to observe celestial bodies in detail. Modern telescopes use lenses or mirrors to gather light, which is then focused to produce an image. Advanced types, like space telescopes, operate outside Earth's atmosphere to avoid distortions, using sophisticated sensors and digital technology for data collection. Adaptive optics and image processing further enhance clarity. This technology enables astronomers to explore the universe's structure, discover new planets, and study distant galaxies, expanding our understanding of the cosmos with precision and clarity.
