Why do astronomers prefer to use the reflecting telescope rather than the refracting telescope to view distant objects in space?

AA reflecting telescope has greater capacity to gather electromagnetic waves

BA refracting telescope has lenses which distort images of distant astronomical objects

CA reflecting telescope does not absorb the harmful radiations in the electromagnetic spectrum

DA refracting telescope does not focus the images of distant objects in the line of view of observer

Verified Answer :

c is the right answer

The reflecting telescope doesn't absorb harmful radiation in the EMR spectrum. Thus option C is correct.

What is a reflective telescope ?

The telescope uses a reflecting device and thus the astronomers use to prefer the refracting to view distant objects

As the reflective telescope is made from the mirrors that are at the lower end of the tube in a reflector they are coated with thin metal. Hence protecting the astronomers from the radiations. Hence are a preference.

Thus option C is correct.
