it is a challenge because it is hard to see by the gases that surround our planet

What happens to objects that enter the earths atmosphere?
the objects which enter the earths atmosphere are being pulled down towards the earths surface due to the earths gravity. And so it leads to falling falling of large objects from the space on the surface of the earth.
Was the hubble space telescope built to observe objects without the interference of the earths atmosphere?
Yes, that is the whole idea of putting a telescope up into space.
Why can gamma rays from objects in space not be detected on Earth's surface?
the earths atmosphere absorbs the radiation or reflects it i cant remember which i think it is a combination of both
Is it true that the clearest images of objects in deep space are produced by a telescope in space?
Yes, telescopes in space, like the Hubble Space Telescope, produce the clearest images because images from ground-based telescopes get distorted when the light passes through the atmosphere.
Why do many meteoroids strike mercury's surface?
When objects enter an atmosphere, they get very hot and would burn up due to friction. Mercury, however, does not have a atmosphere that can block meteoroids, so it is continually battered by space rocks.
What problem does earths atmosphere cause for viewing object in space?
Different layers of the atmosphere are at different temperatures and create distortions when viewing objects from space, sort of like what a mirage does on a road on a hot day.
Why aren't we affected by meteor or asteroid attack?
the only planet which has atmosphere is our earth the atmosphere burns all the outer space objects.
What are Rock like objects that move through space and burn upon entering the atmosphere?
Meteorites
Study of life in outer space?
Exobiology, is ths study of phenomena occurring in the upper atmosphere or celestial objects in outer space.

Does rain fall in space?
Yes. The largest 'objects' that exist are unimaginably huge clouds of material in space.
Can random space objects develop an atmosphere?
Basically, such an object would need to have a large enough mass. If an object's gravitational attraction is too weak, any atmosphere would quickly dissipate into space.

Yes, that is the whole idea of putting a telescope up into space.
Why did Braque and Picasso begin pasting paper fabric rope and other objects to their canvases?
To challenge the space between life and art
How might friction affect an object from outer space entering your atmosphere?
Friction slows objects down, changing kinetic energy into thermal energy. Usually an object from outer space will be travelling very, very fast as it enters the atmosphere and the friction (from the air resistance) will slow it down a lot. This energy is converted to heat, which is why objects can burn up in the atmosphere.
When do you get out of the space atmosphere?
There is no "space atmosphere".
Could objects biodegrade up in outer space?
If they are inside a space craft with an atmosphere, yes, but not just floating around in space since there are no living organisms, there is no oxygen, and it is way too cold.
