Explorers' as we learn how the telescope works,

From nearby planets to the furthest galaxies, the James Webb telescope challenges everything we know about our place in the cosmos 🪐

Join us in episode one of 'Universe Explorers' as we learn how the telescope works, explore its incredible findings and discover how it's rewriting the universe as we know it...Telescopes are fascinating instruments that allow us to observe and study objects in the sky that are otherwise difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye. There are many different types of telescopes, each with its own unique design and capabilities.

At a basic level, telescopes work by using a combination of lenses or mirrors to collect and focus light from distant objects. This focused light is then magnified, allowing us to see the object in greater detail.

There are two main types of telescopes: refracting telescopes and reflecting telescopes. Refracting telescopes use lenses to focus light, while reflecting telescopes use mirrors. Each type has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the choice of which type to use depends on the specific observing goals and conditions.

Telescopes are critical tools for astronomers, cosmologists, and astrophysicists who study everything from the nearby planets in our solar system to the distant reaches of the universe. They have helped us to expand our understanding of the cosmos and have played a key role in some of the most important discoveries in
