Advantages of reflecting telescope over refracting telescope
(i) Mechanical support is easier
(ii) Magnifying power is large
(iii) Resolving power is large
(iv) Spherical aberration is reduced
(v) Free from chromatic aberration
Detailed Answer :
Two advantages of reflecting Telescope over refracting Telescope are given as-
(i) No loss of intensity of incident light, therefore we get bright image in reflecting telescope.
(ii) In reflected telescope, spherical aberration is removed by using parabolic mirrors, so there is no spherical aberration in reflecting telescope.
