Does Earths atmosphere magnify celestial objects in any way?

I've noticed that the moon, if you close your eyes after a long exposure, appears smaller than the light it gives off, when I repeat the the optical experiment inside the atmosphere with a spherical object, I see an imprint of the whole object.

Is this normal? Is this a lens effect due to our atmosphere in some way?

Can light be separated into different wavelengths via Electromagnets?

I'm worried entirely about the possibility.

With a strong enough series of electromagnetic fields, can you separate light into individual wavelengths and back again? (like a prism, but for higher spectrum).

Magnetic resonance in space

I understand that magnets are slightly stronger in space,does that extra energy cause material problems? Like material fusing in places you don't want?
