There's information to be learned from every part of the spectrum. That's why
we build radio telescopes on Earth, and outfit artificial satellites with instruments
to observe the parts of the spectrum that don't penetrate the atmosphere, like
X-rays.

Why astronomers study radiation beyond the violet end of visible light and beyond the red end of visible light?
Astronomers study as much of the spectrum of radiation as they can, and the visible spectrum is only a small segment of it.
Does a prism separate light into only the visible spectrum or the entire spectrum?
Well, seeing as it seperates visible light, it follows that it only seperates that visible light into the visible spectrum. You can't make radiowaves or UV rays out of visible light.
What is also known as the visible spectrum?
The visible spectrum is the light we can see with our own eyes. The colours of the rainbow.
What is Visible light only a small portion of?

red and violet
Is visible light a major part of the EM spectrum?
It is certainly a very important part, but it is not a major part; 'visible light' makes up only a tiny part of the EM spectrum.
