Reflector

A reflector telescope uses mirrors to gather and focus light. Light enters the telescope through its open front end and 

travels to the concave primary mirror at the back. From there the light is reflected back up the tube to a flat secondary 

mirror, which sits at a 45° angle in relation to the eyepiece. Light bounces off of this secondary mirror and out through 

the eyepiece. A reflector telescope is designed for astronomical use. Terrestrial objects may appear inverted, sideways 

or at an angle depending on how your tube is oriented due to optical design. This rotation is perfectly normal on all 

Newtonian reflectors and will not affect astronomical viewing.   

Refractor: 

A refracting telescope uses a collection of lenses to gather and focus light. A refractor’s views will be upside down if 

a diagonal is not in use. A standard diagonal will generate a “right side up” image, however, it will rotate the image on 

the vertical axis (mirror image). To get the “right side up” image without the rotation, you will need to use a special 

diagonal with an erect image prism. 

Catadioptric:

A catadioptric telescope uses a combination of mirrors and lenses to gather and focus light. Popular catadioptric 

designs include the Maksutov-Cassegrain and Schmidt-Cassegrain.
