Interesting question, and one I guess that has lots of answers. Here are two.
1. Never point the telescope directly at the Sun and try to look through it. It can permanently damage your eye.
2. Using a telescope that is too small for the task at hand e.g. trying to use a 6" telescope to look for Pluto.

Why are telescopes very useful to scientist?
They are very useful to scientists because it helps them see stars and planets better
What are the instrument used to study stars and other heavenly bodies?
Telescopes are the main instruments. There are many different types, such as radio telescopes, besides the "usual" optical telescopes. Other instruments such as spectrometers are very useful too.
Useful and non-useful energy transfers for coal?
Useful: Energy Light Sound Non-Useful: Electricity C02
Why were non-optical telescopes developed?
becasue scientist made a discovery of FMR
What discoveries were made with non optical telescopes?
WAS IT ERIKSON'S DISCOVERIES MADE OR BENEFITS OF THE WORLD?
What are useful under most weather conditions since radio waves pass through Earth's atmosphere?
radio telescopes
What are useful and non-useful energy transfers in the production of electricity using coal?
Useful is the actual production of electricity. Non-useful -- unused heat energy released into the environment.
Ultraviolet wavelength telescope to look at distant galaxies?
For Earth-based telescopes this is not a particularly good idea since the ozone layer in the Earth's atmosphere absorbs some of the UV radiation. For space based telescopes, all wavelengths are useful.
What other kinds of radiation are detected by telescopes?
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
Are there any useful effects of refraction?
Yes. Lenses are used for glasses (correction for eye problems), for microscopes, telescopes, and other applications.Yes.

Because radio waves can pass freely through earths atmosphere what are useful under most weather conditions?
radio telescopes
What does a specialized non-optical telescope see?
There are telescopes used to detect radio waves and others to detect infrared radiation.
