Four centuries ago, Galileo Galilei for the first time the telescope to the sky, the startling discovery has led to a study - as opposed to Aristotle's long-standing assertion that the earth was the center of the universe. It 'simply revolves around the so-called
The revelation led to his persecution by the Catholic church, the current pope, Benedict XVI, now Galileo praised for setting the astronomical facts straight. Thanks to the telescope and the Italian, who had the idea of seriouslyaround the night sky, astronomy from astrology, and is distinguished cosmic myths.
To celebrate the 400 anniversary of Galileo first used the telescope, the United Nations in 2009 the International Year of Astronomy. Maybe it's time for more individuals to get a better view of the sky to take. And for this you need a telescope.
Some observers are so nice to have lay people get a taste of their telescopes. And we all have photos of colorful, spectacular viewImages of galaxies made possible by the Hubble telescope. But nothing beats the comfort of your telescope at home.
You do not need the Hubble telescope Kepler or to make a startling discovery. Amateurs in a less familiar neck of the woods (in Cebu, Philippines, to be exact) have discovered that Jupiter is not just a red spot, has two smaller ones, in fact. And they saw the stains using telescopes no larger than their own bodies.
Let's take aTo use to watch two basic types of telescopes amateurs: the telescope and the refracting telescope.
The reflector telescope is ideal for beginners. This is because it gives distorted images. It uses mirrors that are in front of the lens, reflect, gather and focus light for better visibility. It 'also known as "Newtonian reflector," in memory of Isaac Newton.
The refractor telescope, on the other hand, uses lenses to refract light. E 'reliable and easy to use day ground-based observations.
Speaking of the price are cheaper than refractors, reflectors. If you are a beginner, you can try the cheaper way first. But in general it is an expensive hobby. Telescopes trading costs only about $ 500. A pair of binoculars makes a good alternative if only $ 200 in his pocket.
The latest design of amateur telescopes offers the best of both types. The telescope catadiotrophiceconomically and scientifically designed with the features of both reflectors and refractors. It uses both lenses and mirrors to enlarge the space and small distant objects with ease.
And that makes the telescope you choose? Most amateur astronomers interpret this Manufacturer: Meade, Bushnell, Celestron and Orion.
