Reflecting Telescopes use a concave primary mirror to collect light
and form an image. In the Newtonian type of reflector, light is reflect-
ed by a small, flat secondary mirror to the side of the main tube for
observation of the image. Light is collected by a concave mirror and
brought to a focus at F.
