Telescopes in space produce better images than those on Earth because light and other radiation that is recorded by telescopes in space does not pass through the atmosphere, which could blur the image.
They are only better in the sense that they gather more light. A 1 inch telescope gather approximately 9 times as much light as the human eye. A 10 inch telescope gathers 900 times as much light as the human eye.
"Better" is not the question. "Better" is what I call a rubber word. It means
different things to different people all the time, and sometime it even means
different things to the same person.
The human eye functions awesomely over an incredible range of light intensity ...
dimmest to brightest.
If you need to look at things that are too bright, and may damage the eye, then
you put a filter in front of your eyes, or a leaf with a tiny hole in it.
If you need to look at things that are too dim, that the eye can't detect at all, then
you use a telescope.
Mainly because of their larger diameter.
To save images from google earth on iPhone simply press the image and you will get the save option.

NO ... only if you know where the driver lives ... Google earth does not track any thing ... just images of streets ...
Features on Earth radiate warmth at different frequencies, which show up as different colors on Landsat images.
Earth based telescopes have to see through the atmosphere and all the dust it contains. space telescopes like Hubble have nothing but clearspace to see through.
The main proerty tat wllos this is its clarity.
Hubble does not have to contend with the atmosphere of the earth which bends and distorts images from earth-based telescopes. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_does_the_Hubble_Space_Telescope_give_clearer_images_than_those_from_earth
The atmosphere of earth tends to distort images from space. Since Hubble operates outside earths atmosphere, the images it can produce are much more clear.
There is minimal atmospheric disturbance up where the Hubble orbits. Down here on Earth we have to contend with the atmosphere.
Observations from Earth-based telescopes are obscured by the atmosphere.
Simply because the HST is in space - it doesn't get affected by the Earth's atmosphere or light pollution - as ground-based telescopes do. Therefore the images it produces are much more detailed.

In space, has the chance of being hit by debree, but you can get better images, and better info. Also if something goes wrong it will take awhile to fix it. On Earth, Can be fixed fast, but cannot get as better info from in space telescopes.
The Hubble Space Telescope doesn't get affected by the Earth's Atmosphere. It also has the advantage of being in space so the quality and variety of images are a lot greater then any optical telescopes on Earth.

X-ray telescopes are used to study mainly the Sun, stars and supernovas. X-ray telescopes work better at very high altitudes on the Earth's surface.
