Essentials of a Refracting Telescope

Description
A refracting telescope consists of a large, long-focal-length objective lens that collects and focuses light rays
and a small, short-focal-length eyepiece lens that restraightens the light rays. The lenses work together to
brighten, resolve, and magnify the image formed at the focal plane of the objective lens.
