puppy_53 asked:
Compare the function of the objective lens of a telescope with the objective of a
microscope. In each case, do you want a large focal length or small? Why? Where is your
object? Where and what kind of image is formed? Compare the function of the eyepiece
in both instruments. Do you want a large focal length or small? Why? Where is your
“object”? Where and what kind of image is formed?

Midnite Fantasy asked: I’ve a good pair of binoculars which I bought online 2 yrs ago, it’s good but I want to see more stars. My budget around 1k +/- looking to get a good (refractor maybe?) telescope.
Checked out Sim Lim but those telescopes are more like toys … can anyone recommend a good shop?

jrels2 asked:
It is stated that the telescope is capable of observing a single candle flame on the moon, so could the telescope take photographs of the Lunar Rover and American Flag? It would single-handedly debunk the moon conspiracies.

me! asked:
I have a telescope but it’s not too good. What’s the best reasonably priced telescope brand?
Ohh–my old telescope was like one of those so called “trash” scopes. and by reasonably priced I mean like no more than $400.
Well, I mean the best brand within that price range

What is the telescope/probe/satellite that is flying out of the galaxy? I know that the Hubble only goes around earth, but i believe there is one that is flying outward.

MCJEduardo asked:
Many things have been said about that men actually never got to the moon. With current technology, is it possible to point a telescope to the moon to those places where it is supposed man walked? Has this been done in the past? Are there any images out there? If not, with what kind of telescope would it be possible?
