What tools are used to explore space?
Tools such as satellites, space shuttles, and telescopes are used to explore space. Satellites take photos of certain objects in space depending on the mission. Obviously, space shuttles contain humans that are sent on a mission to explore certain object in space. Telescopes are used from Earth.
What types of data and information do these technological tools collect?

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
Most telescopes are telescopes?
refracting
Are optical telescopes much bigger then radio telescopes?
No they are not bigger then radio telescopes at all.
Is the design of radio telescopes very similar to the design of refracting telescopes?
no, reflecting telescopes.
How radio telescopes differ from optical telescopes.?
Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.
What are the major types of optical telescopes?
Ground-based telescopes, and space telescopes. Or: refracting telescopes (main collector is a lens), and reflecting telescopes (main collector is a mirror). Or: Home telescopes (small ones), and professional ones (larger and more expensive).
Where are telescopes generally found?
At a store for telescopes!
Is refracting telescopes bigger then reflecting telescopes?
No
Are there telescopes in space besides Chandra and Hubble?
Yes there are there are many different ones, but here's just a few Herschell, planck, and Kelpler. They were recently sent and have a specific mission.
Are space telescopes manned or unmanned satellites?
All space telescopes are unmanned - unless you want to count the small telescopes on the Shuttle or IIS as space telescopes.
