We don't know exactly who invented the telescope, but some time around the beginning of the 17th century, Dutch spectacle (eyeglass) makers noticed that two lenses could be used to make distant objects appear closer and bigger. After Galileo heard about this, he made a telescope (although not the first) and started to make important discoveries. There have been thousands of discoveries since then, many showing us our place in the universe and providing information about the origin and evolution of the universe.
What else can I help you with?
How telescopes was invented?
The telescope was invented when an eyeglass maker held two lenses up and looked through both of them. They made everything look much larger.
Why do you need to put some telescopes in space?
Telescopes on Earth have to look through the atmosphere (air) which distorts the image. Telescopes in space dont have to look through the atmosphere and so the image is a lot clearer.
Who looks through telescopes at the stars?
Astronomers typically look through telescopes at the stars to study celestial objects such as planets, stars, galaxies, and other phenomena in the universe. They use telescopes to gather data and make observations that help expand our knowledge of the cosmos.
Defenision For Telescopes?
A long thing that people look through IN BED!
How do scientists collect data about our solar system and the universe?
Through telescopes. We have more ground based telescopes than we have instruments in space, though we have also learned a great deal through some space missions, such as through the COBE & WMAP satellites. Optical telescopes provide a wealth of information, but we can see further using radiotelescopes, and we can penetrate deeper through clouds of interstellar gas with infrared telescopes.
Can even the most powerful telescopes see through Venus' clouds?
Optical telescopes can't penetrate the clouds of Venus, but data have been collected from the surface and from the atmosphere below the clouds with radar, radio telescopes, and landing spacecraft.
How has light technology contributed to basic science?
Through the use of microscopes and telescopes.
What are tools and equipment made through scientific discoveries?
technology
Why do optical astronomers place telescopes at the top of mountains while radio astronomers put their telescopes in valleys?
Optical telescopes are placed high to avoid having to look through the thickest part of the atmosphere. Radio telescopes are place in valleys to avoid the effects of man-made electrical noise in the telescope.
Why can hubble space telescopes see much further into space and product much clearer images then telescopes on earth?
Because light is absorbed and disturbed as it passes through air ... effects that ground-based telescopes have to live with but Hubble doesn't.
What year was chemical energy invented?
Chemical energy was not invented in a specific year. It has always existed as a form of potential energy that is stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Human understanding and utilization of chemical energy have evolved over time through scientific discoveries and technological advancements.
What is a storm on Jupiter that is strong enough to be seen through telescopes?
It is not so much that it is string enough to be seen be telescopes as much as it is large enough. That storm is larger than Earth.
