Ultraviolet telescopes are similar to optical reflecting telescopes, but their mirrors have special coatings that reflect ultraviolet light very well. Ultraviolet telescopes provide much information about interstellar gas, young stars, and the gaseous areas of active galaxies.

What other kinds of radiation are detected by telescopes?
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
Why are near infrared telescopes located on mountaintops and ultraviolet telescopes in Earth orbit?
Mountaintops are ideal for near-infrared telescopes because the high altitude reduces atmospheric interference and light pollution. Ultraviolet telescopes are placed in Earth orbit to avoid absorption of ultraviolet light by Earth's atmosphere, which allows for clearer observations of objects emitting in the ultraviolet spectrum.
What are light telescopes?
Telescopes that work with visible light, as opposed to other radiations such as infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, etc.
What Layers of the Sun can be seen with some type of telescope?
The photosphere, chromosphere, and corona of the Sun are typically visible with specific types of telescopes. The photosphere is the lowest layer and what we usually see with the naked eye, while the chromosphere and corona can be observed during a solar eclipse or with specialized solar telescopes that filter out the intense brightness of the photosphere.
Which layers of the Sun can be seen with some type of telescope?
The photosphere can be seen with visible-light telescopes, while the chromosphere is most easily observed with ultraviolet telescopes and the corona with X-ray telescopes.
What instrument to astronomers use?
They use telescopes, but different types of telescopes. There are telescopes for radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays, all depending on what it is you're trying to see.
How do ultraviolet telescopes rays help your teeth and bones?
it gives you rays that help your bones and teeth grow
What animal see ultraviolet rays?
Bees can see ultraviolet rays.
How do ultraviolet telescopes work?
X-ray telescopes collect the X-rays that are emitted from the sun, stars, and super novas in space using a series of curved lenses and an electronic eye.
Can scorpions see in ultraviolet light?
No. They can not see in ultraviolet light. They are known to glow when exposed to ultraviolet light, though.
Can coral snakes see ultraviolet color?
no, they cannot see ultraviolet colors.
Can foxes see ultraviolet colors?
The red fox can see in ultraviolet "color".
