What are the disadvantages of a telescope in space have over a telescope on Earth?
In space, has the chance of being hit by debree, but you can get better images, and better info. Also if something goes wrong it will take awhile to fix it. On Earth, Can be fixed fast, but cannot get as better info from in space telescopes.
What is the main advantage of the hubble space telescope?
The main advantage of the Hubble Space Telescope is in it's name. It's in space! With a ground based telescope, the light that the telescope is looking at must travel through our atmosphere where it can become distorted and manipulated. Looking through a telescope on a windy day is much worse than on a calm day for example. Also, in space there are no clouds or day time, so Hubble can be looking and doing research 24 hours every day.
Why can the hubble space telescope see so far into space?
The Hubble space telescope has no interfering forces and it's design enables it to capture more things also the people at NASA take a tiny sand grain size dot of the picture it took and they enlarge it which shows even more stuff!
Which space shuttle flight put the hubble space telescope into orbit also what was their flight number?
Space Shuttle Discovery, mission STS-31.
What are examples of optical telescopes?
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is an example of an optical telescope, as are the Keck Observatory on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. the Hale Telescope at the Palomar Observatory in California and the Hooker 100 inch Telescope at the Mt Wilson Observatory, also California.
Why is Edwin hubbles invention important?
=Edwin Hubble's invention is important because the telescope its self showed over 50,000 space galaxies and planets. also it was made of cats=
Name the largest telescope in space?
As far as is known, the Hubble Space Telescope is the largest telescope presently in space. Note that it's also the smallest one, because, as far as we know, it's the only space telescope presently in operation.
Why the Hubble telescope is unique?
The Hubble telescope is unique because it was the first space telescope. Also, the Hubble is one of the largest and most versatile.

Why does the Hubble space take such clear pictures of deep space?
One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope. Of course, it is also a good telescope, i.e., well-built.One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope.

Who was Hubble?
Hubble refers to the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). It was launched on April 24 1990 from the space shuttle and has returned spectacular pictures to Earth of the solar system and beyond. See the Related Link below for more details. If you click on the 'Operations' tab when you are in the link, you can also see where Hubble is now, and when it will next pass over your location.
What is used to see space?
A telescope is used to see objects that exist in space. There are many sizes and types of telescopes.Many observations are also made by observing the behavior of planets etc. For example, a black hole observation.Spectroscopy is also used to make observations.Radio waves are also used.The dark matter which exists in space has no known observational instrument.
Why is a space telescope the best telescope to view the cosmos with?
A telescope positioned in space is not subject the the atmospheric interference we have on earth. Even on a clear night moisture in the atmosphere deflects light causing a blurred image. Also, smog and other earthly airborn particles can obscure the light.
Which is the first space telescope in the world?
Though not the first one, yet one of the most popular space telescopes is the Hubble Space telescope. It's named after the American astronomer Edwin Hubble, and was carried into orbit by space shuttle Discovery in April 1990. It marks a landmark in the growth of astronomy world over, and is also considered to be a vital research tool. During my trip to the US Space and Rocket Centre at Huntsville, Alabama as a member of Space Camp India (http://spacecampindia.com/) I had seen images sent back by the Hubble Telescope. We also got to learn how the telescope functions.
Why was the hubble telescope built?
The main reason that the Hubble telescope was built was to get pictures from outer space. The Hubble telescope was also built to help figure out how different planets function and if the telescope managers takes pictures of the sun or moon we can also find how natural disasters happen and how to help with the impacts on earth.
Why is the hubble telescope so special?
It is speacial because It can observe the heavans much better than ground telescopes. It is also the largest and most versatile space telescope
