Ground based telescopes are not as effective at these observations because infrared light is largely blocked by water in Earth's atmosphere.
Only because it gets no atmospheric interference, which most of the ground based telescopes do.
They all could benefit from higher altitude. The higher up you go, the thinner the atmosphere. The thinner the atmosphere, the clearer the view through the telescope. This is why space born telescopes produce such stunningly clear images.
Because it does not have to contend with atmospheric distortion. The atmosphere makes it more difficult to get a clear picture because of the water vapor and the defraction of light as it passes through it. This is why the stars twinkle.
The angular resolution of a telescope in space above Earth's atmosphere is significantly improved compared to telescopes on the ground. With no atmospheric distortion, the telescope can achieve its diffraction limit, which is determined by the aperture size of the telescope and the wavelength of light. This allows for sharper, higher-resolution images of astronomical objects.
Optical space telescopes are not affected by atmospheric turbulence, which can distort images and limit the clarity of ground-based telescopes. Additionally, they can be positioned above the Earth's atmosphere, avoiding interference from light pollution and atmospheric absorption. This allows them to capture clearer and more detailed images of distant objects in space.
No, the Hubble Space Telescope does not have a 1,000-foot dish. Hubble is a space-based observatory that uses a 2.4-meter (about 7.9 feet) primary mirror to collect and focus light from distant astronomical objects. Unlike ground-based telescopes that may use large dishes, Hubble's design allows it to operate above Earth's atmosphere, providing clearer images of the universe.
Above Ground was created in 1983.

One of the biggest problems with ground-based astronomical observatories is shimmer; warm and cool layers of air that can distort the light passing through them. We can't eliminate this problem on the ground, but we can reduce it by placing the telescopes at higher altitudes, so that the telescope is above a substantial fraction of the atmosphere. So to the extent possible over the last 150 years, observatories tend to be built high on various mountains, such as Mount Hamilton, Mount Wilson or Mauna Kea. (We eliminate shimmer entirely with space-based telescopes such as the Hubble, but that causes its own problems with access, maintenance and cost.) Being on mountaintops, the weather is generally cold, and preferably dry.
If you want to ask questions about the "above", then I suggest that you make sure that there is something that is above.
It grows above ground.
