What problem does an earth - based telescope have that a space - baced telescope does not have?
Atmospheric and environmental interference.
Why does a space telescope produce a clearer image then an earth based telescope?
There is less dust in space than earth.
What problem with earthbound telescopes does a space telescope overcome?
if you are looking at space from earth with a telescope your view will have to go through the earth atmosphere.... and for that the less brighter object in space will be blocked by the atmosphere... polutions etc.... but space telescope like hubbles... etc are situated in outer layer of our earth atmosphere..... thats why through it we can observe much clear space view....
What is the difference between formal telescope and space telescope?
I think that a land-based telescope has the atmosphere as an obstacle for good observations, while the space telescope hasn't, so the images taken are more defined. Moreover, the earth orbit of the space telescope allows it to get a wide range of angles. Text by Jim West70
How far above earth does the hubble space telescope orbit?
The Hubble Space Telescope is 600km above the Earth's surface.

What advantage do space telescope have over earth based telescope?
not affected by earth's atmosphere
Is the Chandra a space or land based telescope?
It is a space based XRAY telescope

What are the advantages of an earth based telescope?
That means that the telescope is on planet Earth, as opposed to a planet in outer space, like the Hubble Telescope, the Planck Telescope, the Chandra Telescope, etc.It is a telescope based on our earth

What space telescope orbits the earth every 97 minutes?
the Hubble Space Telescope
Why did the Hubble telescope take off into space?
The problem with ground based telescopes is that the atmosphere distorts images, The Hubble space telescope is above the atmosphere and therefore can view with much better clarity.
How far above earth does the hubble space telescope orbit?
The Hubble Space Telescope is 600km above the Earth's surface.
Is Hubble telescope bigger than earth?
No. The Hubble Space Telescope was built on Earth and launched into space. It is about the size of a bus.
Definition of hubble telescope?
The space telescope that was carried into Earth orbit by a space shuttle in 1990.
