Why is it important that the hubble telescope is outside the earths atmosphere?

Outside the atmosphere the telescope has no interference, precisely by the atmosphere. The telescope can get a clearer picture, and see certain wavelengengths that don't reach Earth.Outside the atmosphere the telescope has no interference, precisely by the atmosphere.

What is the name of the uppermost layer of the atmosphere?

The uppermost layer of the atmosphere is called the exosphere. It extends from about 500 km (310 miles) above the Earth's surface to the edge of space. It is where the atmosphere gradually transitions into the vacuum of outer space.


In what layer is the moon in?

The moon is located in Earth's exosphere. It is outside of Earth's atmosphere, orbiting around our planet.


Is the exosphere the region of space travel?

Well, its not the "outer" space, but its called the space, as it is the last layer of the atmosphere. It called "space" because its distance above the earths surface is 500km to god knows what !


Does the ionosphere lie between the mesophere and the exosphere in science?

These are different types of system. The ionosphere is a part of the atmosphere in which some air molecules are ionized, that is electrically altered, generally by the stripping off of an electron. The mesosphere and the exosphere depend on air pressure and density - usually varying with altitude. Meso- usually means 'middle'. Exo- usually means 'beyond' or outside.

What does the prefix Exo mean in exosphere?

The prefix "exo-" means external or outside, meaning that the exosphere is outside what we normally think of as the atmosphere, and is an extension of Earth's molecules into space.

What layer of the atmosphere is satellites located?

If they are in the atmosphere (low earth orbit), satellites are in the ionosphere. If they are in higher orbits, satellites are considered to be outside the atmosphere.

What does space telescope mean?

This usually refers to a telescope that is actually located outside of the earths atmosphere. as opposed to a telescope designed to view outer space (which is all telescopes to my knowledge).


What is the hubble telescope doing?

it is Floating around in an Orbit outside of Earths atmosphere taking Photos!


Why do you get a clear picture from the hubble telescope when in orbit?

There is no atmospheric interruption from the Hubble because it is outside the atmosphere.


How is the hubble telescope able to operate outside of the atmosphere?

The Hubble Telescope operates outside of the Earth's atmosphere in space, where it is not affected by atmospheric distortions that can blur images. This allows for clearer and more detailed observations of distant celestial objects. Additionally, being above the atmosphere also provides access to a wider range of wavelengths of light that would be absorbed or scattered by the atmosphere.


Does gamma rays reach to the earth?

. The oxygen and nitrogen from the exosphere down to the "ozone layer" (lower stratosphere) serve to stop gamma radiation coming from outside into our atmosphere.


What is the meaning ofexosphere?

Exosphere means outside of the sphere.


Why can a telescope see farther into space from space than one on Earth?

The Earth's atmosphere creates distortion and acts as a filter to prevent a perfectly clear view of space. Outside our atmosphere, there is nothing blocking the view. That and there is less light from cities and stuff to interfere with the telescope.
