How does a radio telescope gather data?
a radio telescope focuses the incoming radio waves on a antenna, which absorbs and transmits these waves to an amplifier, just like a radio antenna.
Why can't a radio telescope be used on a cloudy night?
A radio telescope can be used on a cloudy night, because its signal can move through the clouds and rain mostly unaffected and still gather data.
When can Ground-based radio telescopes can collect data from distant objects in space?
Ground-based radio telescopes can collect data from distant objects in space when the objects are within view of the telescope and the telescope is not obstructed by the Earth's atmosphere or interference from human-made radio signals. They are most effective at collecting data during clear weather conditions and at night when radio frequency interference is minimized.
What Are Radeo Telescopes?
Do you mean Radio Telescopes? A radio telescope is a form of directional radio antenna used in radio astronomy. The same types of antennas are also used in tracking and collecting data from satellites and space probes.
What is an aggregate dataset?
Aggregate data is data combined from multiple measurements. When this happens, the grouped observations are summarized based on those observations.

What is multiwavelength astronomy?
It is the study of stars, moons and other things in space which emit light. Astronomers take pictures of them with different types of telescopes. This can help them to find a stars date of birth and date of death a long with many other things. An example is, recording the same star with a light range telescope, then a radio telescope. Using a computer, the data is merged, and the resultant image can often tell more than was learned by the combined data from the light and radio telescopes
What type of telescope uses and antenna and receiver?
A radio telescope uses an antenna and receiver to detect radio waves emitted by astronomical objects. Unlike optical telescopes that observe visible light, radio telescopes capture radio frequencies, allowing astronomers to study phenomena such as pulsars, quasars, and cosmic microwave background radiation. The collected data is then processed to create images or spectra of the observed objects.
Is this a good idea to locate a radio telescope near a radio station?
Locating a radio telescope near a radio station is generally not a good idea due to potential interference from the radio station's broadcasts. Radio telescopes are extremely sensitive to electromagnetic signals, and the noise from a nearby station could disrupt observations and data collection. Ideally, radio telescopes should be placed in remote areas with minimal man-made radio frequency interference to ensure accurate and clear readings of celestial objects.
What is a radio telescope made out of?
Radios are electronic devices which grab signals and turn them into sound. They are composed of electrical circuits and of the various electrical and electronic components that are needed to make those circuits which in turn make the radio itself work.
Can radio waves penetrate Earth's atmosphere?
yes, this is why we had two-way radio contact ( and still do) with NASA manned space craft. Also don't forget . . . -- radio contact with Apollo astronauts on the moon -- radio contact with the International Space Station -- receiving pictures and data from the Hubble Space Telescope -- receiving TV at home from stationary satellites -- radio contact with Curiosity on Mars -- radio-astronomy
How does the Hubble telescope get information down to Earth?
The Hubble telescope gathers data using its instruments, then transmits the information as radio waves to communication satellites in Earth's orbit. From there, the data is sent to ground stations on Earth, where it is received and processed by scientists.
