Optical telescopes are placed high to avoid having to look through the thickest part of the atmosphere. Radio telescopes are place in valleys to avoid the effects of man-made electrical noise in the telescope.
The dry area is a good place for the astronomers for telescopes.
It doesn't have to be big telescopes, there does not even have to be a telescope. It is called an observatory because it is a place where astronomical observations are made. Long before the first telescope was made there were observatories.
An observatory is a place specifically designed for viewing stars and planets, usually equipped with telescopes and other scientific equipment. These facilities are often located in areas with minimal light pollution to maximize visibility of celestial objects.
An observatory is a place that uses telescopes and scientific equipment for astronomical research. Observatories are often located in remote and dark locations to minimize light pollution and atmospheric interference.
An observatory is a place where people view and study the sky and space, often equipped with telescopes and other astronomical instruments.
An "observatory".
An observatory is the name of a place that uses telescopes and other scientific equipment to study space and astronomy. The Mount Polamar Observitory in the west of the US is an iconic example. Today, Earth based observitories are supplimented by space telescopes.
Yes, if you look in the right place.
