Why are most large telescopes reflecting telescopes?
They are refracting telescopes(:Large refracting telescopes are no longer built because there were too many problems with them. There was color distortion, light pollution, and when the object hits the focal point it turns upside down. Then you don't see the object for what it really is, you see it upside down and weird-ed out. They are to complicated and scientists believed they should just stick with the simple, small, original refracting telescopes!!!!-Meghan Betts (8th grader)
Why can radio telescopes withstand weather conditions and optical can not?
Optical telescopes rely on light waves being sent from the object being observed. Weather conditions (clouds) can block the light from the object reaching the telescope's lens. Radio telescopes only search for radio-waves being sent from the object under scrutiny - which are not (as a rule) affected by weather conditions on earth.
The ability of an object to transfer electric current?
The ability of an object to transfer electric current is conductivity.
What three technology that humans use to observe object that difficult to visit?
Telescopes, spectroscopes, space probes.
How is rotation different from revolution?
"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object
What does portable refer to?
It refers to the ability to transport an object. A 10 pound object is more easily portable than a 10 ton object.
Why is it necessary to use different types of telescopes in astronomy?
Larger telescopes are often used to focus on one specific star or distant formations. Smaller telescopes view broader areas of stars or larger formations.
Is magnification the ability to make things larger than what they are?
magnification is the ability to make things larger they they actually are by taking the lens from a microscope or by just using a microscope and magnifying the object.
How quickly an object vibrates is called what?
telescopes
Object linking and embedding OLE refers to the ability to use data from another file called the?
source
What is The light-gathering ability?
The light-gathering ability refers to the capacity of an optical system, such as a telescope or camera lens, to collect light from a distant object. It is determined by the size of the aperture or objective lens. A larger aperture allows more light to enter the system, resulting in brighter and more detailed images.
Which term refers to the ability of a microscope lens to show fine details of the object being?
I think it's Resolution.....

What are elongated shapes?
Elongated shapes are ones whose measurement in one dimension is larger than in others. It refers to an object which is long.

Where do x ray telescopes have to be placed in order to view object in space?
Satellites
An object that readily transmits light without distorting the images?
refracting telescopes
