Where do most x-ray and uv telescopes work best?
Most ultraviolet rays, x-rays, and even gamma rays are absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere, inhibiting the use of telescopes in these wavelength regimes from the ground or even at high altitudes. Therefore space telescopes are generally used to study light at these wavelengths. The telescopes can be in circular Earth-orbit or even further out at the Earth/Sun lagrangian points where the telescope can stay relatively still for high resolution images. Some examples include the Chandra x-ray observatory, the Compton gamma ray observatory, the hubble space telescope (visible, infrared, and UV instruments), and the Spitzer space telescope (infrared).
What is a well known space project that uses a gyroscope to operate other than the Hubble telescope?
one example is the Hubble Space Telescope. it has six gyroscopes:three to stay on balance and three are spares
Is there any materials or metals that will stay cool or cold when heated?
Co2
Can a space probe have an engine?
Yes, and many do depending on what they are for. If the probe is just being placed in earth orbit and is intended to stay if that orbit without moving then it needs no engine and won't have one. The Hubble Space Telescope is a good example. If the probe is intended to change its orbit around the earth, or if it is intended to leave earth orbit and go elswehere in the solar system, then it will need engines for that purpose and will have them.
How does the water boil In a bong?
It doesn't. It is there to cool the smoke so it has to stay at room temp.
What is the name of the telescope that will stay in space for three years?
Kepler telescope
What do astronauts use to stay cool in space?
ac
How long will the Hubble space telescope stay up?
The Hubble Space Telescope is still going strong and could stay up until 2018. However there are many uncertainties. A critical part could get hit by a space rock. A gyro etc. could fail. Congress could quit funding it.
What year was the Hubble Space Telescope put into orbit?
The Hubble Space Telescope was put into the orbit in 1990 and is still there up until today. It already had to be repaired five times and is expected to stay in the orbit until at least 2013.

How long is the hubble telescope expected to last?
The last service should allow the Hubble to function until 2014, when its successor, the James Webb Space Telescope is due to be launched.However, current space operations have far outlived some of their expectations, so the Hubble could stay in service a lot longer.
What is the duration of Stay Cool?
The duration of Stay Cool is 1.57 hours.
How does a pig stay cool?
Pigs stay cool by rollin in mud
When was Stay Cool created?
Stay Cool was created on 2009-04-23.
How does a dog stay cool?
Dogs stay cool by the canine equivalent of sweating- panting.
