What advantage does a radio telescope have over a optical telescope?
They function on entirely different principles. it is like asking what advantages does a parabolic sound detector ( a common spy device that looks like, but is not radar oriented) have over a pair of binoculars. one records sound or radio wavelengths, the other visual images. They have totally different applications one has a telescope operator as an observer, visually observing targets but the radio-telescope operator is merely a monitor. the analogy with radar is good as they are a derivative of Radio Direction and Ranging, hence RADAR,
How is a radar and a telescope similar?
There is little or no similarity. A radar is active (it radiates energy). A telescope is passive (It relys on incoming energy) The only thing I can think of, is that you point both towards an object and get some sort of information from it.
How are reflecting and retracting telescopes different?
A reflecting telescope is different from a refracting telescope because a reflecting telescope uses a concave lens, a plane mirror, and a convex lens. While a refracting telescope uses two lens.
How is a radio telescope different from a refracting telescope?
A radio telescope detects light in the form of radio waves and a refracting telescope detects light in the visible wavelengths
What is the long form of radar?
The long form of radar can be many different things. Radar stands for Radio Detection And Range in the USA military.
Type of telescope?
Different telescopes utilize different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Two types of optical telescope are refracting and reflecting. There are also different kinds of radio telescope investigating different bandwidths from the infra red to the untra violet
What does the scrambler feature on the Rocky Mountain Radar RMR-C435 Laser/Radar Detector really do?
The Rocky Mountain Radar RMR-C435 scrambler takes a radar pulse and "bounces" it around, so that it appears as if it's coming from a different location at a different speed.
What are the names of different telescopes?
Refecter telescope
What makes the hubble telescope different from all the land based telescope you have?
It's much more powerful
How are the advantages of a moon-based telescope different than an earth-based telescope?
You coulD explore shizzle
How many people built the hubble telescope?
More than 10,000 scientists built the Hubble Telescope. They were assigned to work on different parts of the Hubble Telescope.
What telescope shows different views of planets?
A refracting telescope can show different views of planets by adjusting the eyepiece magnification. By changing the eyepiece, you can increase or decrease the magnification to see different details and perspectives of the planet. This allows for different views of the planetary surface, rings, or moons.
