How to Make a Simple Refracting Telescope (Monocular)
This video shows how to build a simple refracting telescope, also called a monocular or a spyglass, using two lenses. One lens is double convex (converging) and one is double concave (diverging). This results in a magnified right-side-up...

Simulated Image Demonstrates the Power of NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will capture the equivalent of 100 high-resolution Hubble images in a single shot, imaging large areas of the sky more than 1,000 times faster than Hubble. In several months, the Roman Space...

How 3D holograms work
Holograms are photographic recordings of 3D scenes. Unlike a camera, which captures one view through a small viewer focused by a lens, holograms capture an entire light field which allows them to recreate the 3D scene. Shimmery 2D...
