Why is hubble telescope is so high?

Because it sites the telescope outside the earth's atmosphere - thus the images don't suffer from light pollution as they do on earth-bound instruments.

No, outside Earth's atmosphere is space.


How did life on earth come to exist?

Scientific ExplanationAs the earth was cooling millions of years ago there was no life on earth, however the atmosphere was still very unstable and it was a consant electrical storm, and from the surface of the earth eminated gases into pools of acidic liquid. These acidic pools contained something called Ribonucleic acid or RNA.Over time coupled with the constant bombardment of electrical energy from the storms in the atmosphere strands of RNA bound together into odd patterns, some bound together into helix shapes.Two strands of RNA bound together in a helix is known as Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. These DNA strands were the makings of life and namily single celled organisms.Theory Of CreationGod created the earth in 6 days.

Is almost all of the oxygen on planet earth found in the atmosphere?

No. Most of the oxygen on Earth is bound up in the silicate minerals that make up most of Earth's rocks.


What is in the states of matter?

Oxygen can be a solid, liquid, or gas, depending on the temperature and pressure and on what other elements it is bound to in a chemical compound. Free molecular oxygen, as found in the Earth's atmosphere, is a gas. Oxygen bound with hydrogen in the Earth's oceans is a liquid. Oxygen bound with iron in iron oxide (rust) is a solid.


Why are observatory located in the mountains?

Because observatories in the mountains are above much of the light pollution, atmospheric pollution, and the atmosphere itself, all of which hinder sea-level bound telescopes. Bound to earth, we do the best we can do, we give ourselves "the best shot". Hence, the ultimate achievement in this regard is the Hubble Space Telescope, the spectacular images of which are unhampered by earth's atmosphere.
