How Does The Size Of The Telescope And Wavelength Of Light Affect The Resolution Of An Image? [Solved]
The longer the wavelength, the lower the theoretical resolution for a telescope of given size. Hence an optical telescope such as Gemini that can also observe at near-infrared wavebands should theoretically obtain lower resolution observing an object in the IR than at shorter wavelength visible light.
