A microscope works by gathering light from a tiny area of a thin, well-illuminated specimen. The microscope does not need a large objective lens like a telescope or binoculars. The objective lens on a microscope is small, which means that it has a shorter focal length and brings the image of the object into focus at a short distance. Microscopes allow you to view living cells and tissues as well as non-living samples such as rocks. You can find microscopes with a simple design as well as complex designs.
