Answer:
it will affect the mass by changing in pressure will affect the volume (and therefore density) of gases, but will not noticeably affect the volume (or density) of solids and liquids. For gases: An increase in pressure leads to a decrease in volume and an increase in density. A decrease in pressure leads to an increase in volume and an decrease in density.

Answer:
1. Weight.
2. Large lens will tend to deflect under its own weight
Explanation:
Hello,
Weight is a big part of it. There’s a reason the largest working refractor on Earth (the Clark refractor at Yerkes Observatory in Wisconsin) has a 102-cm objective; a 125-cm lens was created for the Paris Exposition of 1900, but the accompanying telescope was a pain to use (very hard to aim) and was scrapped when no one wanted to buy it.
Lens can only be supported at its edges unlike mirrors, and a large lens will tend to deflect under its own weight unless it’s so thick that it won’t transmit much light. It is also extremely difficult to cast and polish a glass blank of such huge size, which is why (see List of largest optical refracting telescopes - Wikipedia) almost no one has tried building one in over a century.
Best regards.
During the Last Glacial Maximum, much of the world was cold, dry, and inhospitable, with frequent storms and a dust-laden atmosphere. The dustiness of the atmosphere is a prominent feature in ice cores; dust levels were as much as 20 to 25 times greater than now.
