The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was carried into orbit by a Space Shuttle in 1990 and remains in operation. Although it has taken photos from other galaxies, it does not have the capability of capturing a single image of 100 billion galaxies on one photo.

How do radio telescope different from optical telescope?

Radio telescopes collect radio waves. Optical telescopes capture visible light waves.


Does a telescope form a real image?

Yes. Both the objective lens in a refracting telescope and the main mirror in a reflecting telescope form real images at the prime focus. A frame of photo film or a CCD placed at that spot will capture the image.


Why was the space shuttle program so important to the success of the hubble space telescope?

Many reasons. For one, the telescope was started and designed specifically with the space shuttle in mind. It was launched on a space shuttle, and only the space shuttle's ability to carry astronauts and capture satellites with the robotic arm made the correctional repairs possible. Several servicing missions by space shuttles have upgraded and replaced vital parts to extend the telescope's life and keep it in orbit. After the Columbia disaster, the space shuttle and telescope's futures were both in question. If the space shuttle never existed, we wouldn't have the Hubble space telescope either.


What kind of tele scope is hubble?

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a reflecting telescope. Specifically, it is a large, space-based observatory that uses mirrors to gather and focus light from distant objects in space. Reflecting telescopes like Hubble use curved mirrors to capture and reflect light to form images, unlike refracting telescopes that use lenses. Hubble's primary mirror is 2.4 meters (7.9 feet) in diameter and is used to collect light from celestial objects, allowing astronomers to study the universe in visible, ultraviolet, and near-infrared wavelengths.


Why is a concave mirror better for gathering light than a plane mirror on a telescope?

-- A concave mirror gathers the light and bunches it up all in one place, called the "focus" of the mirror. There's a "real image" at that place, and you can capture it with a piece of ground glass, tissue, photo-film, or light-sensitive device at that place. -- A plane mirror doesn't gather anything. It just kind of sends the light back toward where it came from. It doesn't form any real image, and there's nothing to capture.

years, nuclei could finally capture electrons to form atoms, filling the Universe with clouds of hydrogen and helium gas?

During the Big Bang, all of the space, time, matter, and energy in the Universe was created. This giant explosion hurled matter in all directions and caused space itself to expand. As the Universe cooled, the material in it combined to form galaxies, stars, and planets.

Why did parkes have better images then america in Apollo 11?

Parkes was a larger telescope and able to capture more of the signal broadcasting from the moon. Houston control switched over to the Parkes pictures for the entire 2 hour and thirty minute broadcast because of the superior capture quality of this large telescope.

Why was the hibble telescope invented?

You are probably referring to the Hubble space telescope. The basic idea is that a telescope in space has a clearer view, because it doesn't have atmospheric interference. Thus, the hubble telescope, while only being 2.4 meter in diameter, can get clearer pictures than a 5-meter telescope on Earth, for example. Also, it can capture some wavelengths that don't get to the Earth's surface, because they are almost completely absorbed by the atmosphere.
