Why do astronomers put telescopes in space?
The Earth's atmosphere is about 120 miles thick and anything we see from the surface of the Earth is distorted by the water vapor and debris that is in the air. If you are in space you do not have this distortion. The Hubble Telescope is a good example of space based telescopes.Scientists have put telescopes in space to avoid interference by the atmosphere.SOURCE:-Page 560 of Holt Science & Technology Earth Science-Chapter 18-Studying Space-Section 2- Telescopes-Optical Telescopes in Space
Why is Mr. Hubble so famous for the Hubble telescope?
It is the first outer space telescope and the images are so much more accurate it overall helps astronomers to have a better idea f what it actually looks like as normal telescopes are distorted by the earths atmosphere
What percent of the earths surface is the US?
100
How much of earths oceans cover earths surface?
70% or 80% of water covers the earths surface
What is the relationship between society and the technologies of using earths resources?
the relationship is technologies trikes
Does the outer core cover earths surface?
No the crust covers earths surface
Why are map projecters needed?
to draw the earths surface.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
Why are some telescopes placed in space above the earths atmosphere?
Some telescopes are placed in space to avoid the Earth's atmosphere, which can distort and absorb light from celestial objects. Atmospheric interference can blur images and limit the wavelengths of light that reach the ground. By positioning telescopes in space, astronomers can obtain clearer, more detailed observations across a broader range of wavelengths, including ultraviolet and infrared, which are blocked by the atmosphere. This enables more accurate studies of the universe and its phenomena.
What Continuous movement of water from Earths surface to the and back to earths surface?
it is water cycle
What gathers information that can not be seen from earths surface?
There are a number of orbital telescopes, the most famous being the Hubble, as well as robotic probes, the Mars lander and so forth, that gather information that cannot be obtained from the Earth's surface. The far side of the moon, which is never seen from the Earth's surface, has been photographed.
