Glossary term: 望遠鏡

Description: 望遠鏡是一種收集遙遠物體的光子(可見光或其他波段)並向觀察者提供有關信息(如圖像)的裝置。早期的望遠鏡(從 17 世紀初開始)使用透鏡作為光學元件(如折射望遠鏡)。透鏡的製作尺寸有上限,因此為了用更大的望遠鏡更細緻地觀察較暗的物體,人們改用鏡子(見反射望遠鏡)來聚焦光線。最大的光學望遠鏡就是反射望遠鏡。在20 世紀,人們發明瞭研究電磁波譜其他波段的望遠鏡,因此現在有了射電望遠鏡、紅外望遠鏡、X 射線望遠鏡等。由於天體很闇弱,天文學家傾向於建造大口徑望遠鏡,以收集更多光線,達到更精細的角分辨率。

兩位天文學家正在觀測月食。在多雲的天空中,在他們之間,一連串明亮的圓圈勾勒出一條彎曲的軌跡。

我們之間的日食,作者穆罕默德·雷漢,印度尼西亞

Caption: 2021年國際天文學聯合會教育辦公室天文攝影大賽月全食類別的第二名。 月全食是一種相當壯觀的天文現象,無論是否使用望遠鏡都可以輕鬆觀測到。這裡展示的是2018年1月31日在印度尼西亞拍攝的月全食各個階段:從滿月進入地球圓形本影的開始,到全食階段呈現的“血月”,再到月亮開始離開地球本影直至月落。

一架望遠鏡指向天空,銀河橫亙其中,呈現出深淺相間的斑駁光斑。

了解夜空

Caption: 在哥倫比亞塔塔科阿沙漠廣袤無垠的夜空下,一架天文望遠鏡對準了宏偉的銀河核心,同時一部智能手機記錄下了這次宇宙邂逅。這張照片拍攝於2023年6月9日的一次天文夏令營,象徵著天體奇觀的美麗與平易近人,它展示了夜空令人著迷的壯麗景色,吸引了普通的觀星者和熱情的天文學家。銀河的壯麗通過移動設備優雅地捕捉下來,在精密設備與純粹、深邃的觀星樂趣之間架起了一座無縫的橋梁。
