Refracting telescope, artwork C017 / 7202
Refracting telescope. Computer artwork showing the structure of a typical large refracting telescope. A refracting telescope is a type of optical telescope that uses a lens as its objective to form an image. Nowadays, this kind of telescope is mainly used in amateur astronomy. Although large refracting telescopes were very popular in the second half of the 19th century, for most research purposes the refracting telescope has been superseded by the reflecting telescope, which allows larger apertures

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Refracting Telescope" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the inner workings of a typical large refracting telescope. Against a striking black background, this computer-generated illustration showcases the intricate structure and components that make up this remarkable astronomical device. A refracting telescope is an optical marvel that employs a lens as its objective to create clear and detailed images of celestial objects. While it finds its place predominantly in amateur astronomy today, these telescopes enjoyed immense popularity during the latter half of the 19th century. However, for most research purposes, they have been surpassed by reflecting telescopes due to their ability to accommodate larger apertures. Carlos Clarivan's artistic rendition beautifully highlights the technological prowess behind this instrument. The cut-out design allows us to explore the internal mechanisms with ease, revealing how light travels through various physical components within the telescope. As we gaze upon this stunning artwork, we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge about our vast universe. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our insatiable curiosity about space observation. Let this print inspire you to delve deeper into the wonders of astronomy and appreciate the incredible machines that enable us to unravel cosmic mysteries.
