Why does photographs from telescopes in space show the nebula more clearly?

Space-based telescopes can see further in space as they don't have to make do with a disturbing atmosphere (slight differences in temperature in atmospheric layers lead to perturbations of photos). So, very long exposures (over hours) can reasonably be made without having to fear such undesired phenomena. Very long exposures also means that the very faint sources of light (at the edge of the observable universe) can also be pictured so that they can be distinguished from the background noise. This way, space telescopes see further.

What do astronomers use to look at planets?
Their eyes, ground-based telescopes, space telescopes.
Orion is not the only nebula in space this is another one that is the name of a bird that rhymes with fawn?
Swan Nebula
Where is the Home of the Crab Nebula in space?
The constellation Taurus
What are two characteristics of telescopes that allowed Galileo to see so much in space?
reflecting and refracting telescopes
How has the Hubble space telescope helped NASA?
Most large earth bound telescopes cannot see clear images of objects in deep space. Our. atmosphere distorts the pictures with shimmery air. The HST (Hubble Space Telescope) has the advantage because it is in space and has almost no distortion. It can see much farther than regular telescopes.
Are space telescopes manned or unmanned satellites?
All space telescopes are unmanned - unless you want to count the small telescopes on the Shuttle or IIS as space telescopes.
What has the hubble space telescope found out about space?
The Hubble spacecraft has found more anbout the stars and planets more clearly then the others saw from other telescopes.
What are 2 reasons for sending telescopes into space?
Telescopes in space are able to view objects clearly without having to look through a thick layer of the Earth's atmosphere. This enables them to capture better pictures and observe dimmer and more distant objects.
What is a mass of gases dust particle s and stars that are located in space?
nebula
Why do you want telescopes in space?
The same reason you want them on earth. To see stuff too far away to see clearly with a pair of reading glasses.
Are there telescopes in space?
hubble space station
What tool do astronomers use to study space?
they use space probes,satellites,and of coarse,telescopes.
How are space telescopes controlled?
Radio signals are sent from Earth, to operate the telescopes.
What are the two ways scientists explore space?
light telescopes and radio telescopes whether installed on earth or on space vehicles
How are telescopes used in astronomy?
Telescopes are used to see things that are far away from earth. Using telescopes we can see things that are millions of miles away. Most of the telescopes are on Earth but some of them are in space such as the Hubble Space Telescope.
What is the point in telescopes in space?
A telescope in space will have no interference from the atmosphere.
How are telescopes brought into space?
they are bought into space for the stars and planets
