Why is it easier for astronauts to service the Hubble telescope than to service the James Webb telescope?
This is primarily due to the orbit as the HST who circles Earth at a mere 570 km above the surface while the JWST will have an elliptical orbit with a diameter of 800,000 km. Even in the closest point to Earth the JWST will be twice as far as the moon. You will have to prepare for a kind of "expedition to the moon" when going to repair the JWST in space.

Why did they invente the hubble telescope?
the reason for all st's ,you can see farther,clearer,and easier then gbt's
Which of the following is not an advantage the Hubble Space Telescope has over ground based telescopes?
The Hubble Space Telescope is not affected by atmospheric distortion, providing clearer images than ground-based telescopes. Ground-based telescopes have the advantage of being easier to upgrade and maintain than a space-based telescope like the Hubble.
Does the hubble space telescope use mirrors or lenses?
The Hubble Space Telescope uses mirrors to gather and focus incoming light. The primary mirror is 2.4 meters in diameter and collects light from celestial objects to produce high-resolution images. Mirrors are well-suited for space telescopes as they are more durable and easier to shape to precise specifications compared to lenses.
Why hubble telescope have a stepped appearance?
The Hubble Space Telescope has a segmented mirror made up of smaller hexagonal mirror segments that work together to form a single large mirror. This segmented design allows for a larger aperture size than a single-piece mirror of the same size and also allows for easier maintenance and replacement of individual segments if needed.
Why are stars brighter in the north?
That is an illusion caused by less "light clutter": That is, less city lights to distract the eye. Seeing stars is much easier from high altitude, which is why the Hubble Space Telescope was created at such great expense.
How does a telescope make life easier?
It helps people see things that are far away easier.
How do you use the word retrofit in a sentence?
It is easier to build accessibility into the design rather than having to retrofit a solution. He tried to retrofit a fuel injection system into his old Mercedes. The retrofit using new lenses effectively repaired the Hubble Telescope.
Why did the astronauts bounce on the moon?
probaly because it was easier
Which planet is easier to spot using a telescope?
uranus
What are the advantages of an earth based telescope?
That means that the telescope is on planet Earth, as opposed to a planet in outer space, like the Hubble Telescope, the Planck Telescope, the Chandra Telescope, etc.It is a telescope based on our earth
Why are most large telescope reflecting telescope?
They are much shorter than refracting telescopes, hence, much cheaper to buy and easier to transport.
If you were looking at Venus and Mars through a telescope which surface would be easier to see?
Mars
