An optical telescope cannot be used during cloudy days. Of course, this assumes that the telescope is located somewhere on the Earth's surface and therefore subject to weather. Since clouds obscure the sky - and any heavenly object otherwise visible - the optical telescope will be unable to see anything. A radio telescope, however, can see through clouds, simply because clouds do not block or cause significant interference to radiowaves reaching the Earth's surface from space.

and it just depends on what you're interested in seeing.

What instrument was used by Galileo to see craters on the moon for the first time?

What are the difference between hubble space telescope in Galileo telescope?
one is for weather and one does gps signals...
Which of these is used in a radio telescope?

Galileo used and made the first telescope.
When could a radio telescope and light telescope be used together?
To make a tv telescope
How long has the telescope been used?
The telescope has been used for over 100 years!!!
What telescope is able to pick up images regardless if the weather and sky conditions?
One which doesn't use the visible light portion of the EM spectrum. For instance, a microwave telescope. A telescope would also be able to function regardless of weather conditions if it were in orbit, rather than ground-based.
When did maria mitchell invented the telescope?
She didn't invent the telescope, but she used a telescope to discover a comet.
The Hubble Space Telescope is located in LEO. Does the telescope move faster or slower around the Earth compared with a geostationary weather satellite?
That is the exact questin i had!!
Is a telescope is used to view things far away?
A telescope is used to view things far away.
Why was the Hubble Telescope Founded?
The Hubble Space Telescope was developed (not "founded") because ground-based telescopes are limited because of atmospheric distortions, while a space telescope isn't affected by glare, clouds, rain, or weather.
What did Leeuwenhoek used to make a telescope?
He didn't. Leeuwenhoek experimented with the microscopeprincipal, not the telescope.
