What is a refractor telescope?

A refractor telescope is an optical instrument that uses lenses to gather and focus light, producing images of distant objects. It consists of an objective lens at the front that collects light and forms an image, and an eyepiece at the back that magnifies and projects the image for viewing. Refractors are known for their crisp, high-contrast views, making them popular for observing the Moon, planets, and terrestrial objects. They’re relatively low-maintenance and well-suited for beginners and visual observers.
