What else can I help you with?
Why were non-optical telescopes developed?
becasue scientist made a discovery of FMR
What year was the non optical telescope invented?
The non-optical telescope, primarily radio telescopes, were invented in the 1930s. One of the first and most notable radio telescopes was built by Karl Guthe Jansky in 1931.
What does a specialized non-optical telescope see?
There are telescopes used to detect radio waves and others to detect infrared radiation.
Why do non optical telescopes work better on earth?
They don't. All earth bound telescopes, optical or not, must deal with a number of issues. But what do you mean by "better"? A radio telescope is better suited to pick up radio waves than an optical telescope, but an optical telescope is better for visible light. They each serve their purpose better than the other.
What are examples of non-optical telescopes?
All types of lens that see parts of the electromagnetic spectrum other than light. E.g. infrared cameras
What is the difference between a optical microscope and a non- optical microscope?
light is must for optical microscope while is not necessary for nonn optical one
Which type of telescope is most similar to an optical telescope?
No. The Hubble Space Telescope is an optical telescope of the reflective type. A 'non optical' telescope would be one that works on different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum below or above the optical wavelengths.
State the difference between optical and non-optical telescopes?
Optical measures visible light, Radio measures electromagnetic radiation in that part of the spectrum corresponding to radio waves. Same with X-ray telescopes and x-rays. Optical is the kind you look through.
Is silicon a non linear optical material?
silicon is opaque
What is the advantage of using a non-Optical telescope over an optical telescope?
See things that don't shine in the visible spectrum.
Why telescopes that detect non optical radiation are useful for studying objects in space?
Visible light is a very narrow range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Even audible sound, at the very bottom, is part of this EM spectrum. Radio and other types of 'scopes are designed to 'see' these other ranges, often with surprising results. The space telescope employs more than visible light capabilities, as do many Earth and space-bound telescopes. Looking at Saturn in visible light is quite breath-taking, but in ultra-violet (UV) a remarkable geometric pattern is visible on one of its poles.
Do refracting and reflecting telescopes use visible light to view the images?
Those terms are most commonly used for optical telescopes. However, the same design can be used for non-visible frequencies; for example, radio telescopes of the "satellite dish" variety are essentially reflecting telescopes.
