Okay, friend. The largest optical telescope on Earth is the Gran Telescopio Canarias, located in the Canary Islands, off the northwest coast of Africa. Isn't it amazing how we can look up to the stars to learn more about this beautiful world we live in? Just like painting a happy little tree, science helps us appreciate the grandeur of nature in its own unique way. Embrace each discovery with joy in your heart, and let it inspire you to create your own masterpiece on this canvas we call life.
What else can I help you with?
Is the Hubble telescope the biggest telescope in the world?
No, the biggest telescope in the world currently is the Large Binocular Telescope. But Hubble is the biggest spacetelescope.
Where is Hubble Telescope located?
The Hubble Telescope is a space telescope which is approximately 559 kilometers away from the surface of the earth in a "low earth orbit" which indicates that it is orbiting under 200 kilometers.
Where is the Hubble telescope located in the world?
The Hubble Space Telescope is gravitationally bound to the world but is nowhere in the world. It is orbiting the earth in a nearly circular path 240 miles above the surface, completing one revolution every 100 minutes or so. I don't know the inclination of its path to the equator.
Is Hubble telescope bigger than earth?
No. The Hubble Space Telescope was built on Earth and launched into space. It is about the size of a bus.
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
Is the Hubble telescope the biggest telescope in the world?
No, the biggest telescope in the world currently is the Large Binocular Telescope. But Hubble is the biggest spacetelescope.
What discovery did the optical telescopes make?
the optical telescope has discovered objects on earth and in space
Why do non optical telescopes work better on earth?
They don't. All earth bound telescopes, optical or not, must deal with a number of issues. But what do you mean by "better"? A radio telescope is better suited to pick up radio waves than an optical telescope, but an optical telescope is better for visible light. They each serve their purpose better than the other.
Why do optical telescope work better in space?
In space, there is no interference by Earth's atmosphere.
Is a telescope used for weather?
An optical telescope cannot be used during cloudy days. Of course, this assumes that the telescope is located somewhere on the Earth's surface and therefore subject to weather. Since clouds obscure the sky - and any heavenly object otherwise visible - the optical telescope will be unable to see anything. A radio telescope, however, can see through clouds, simply because clouds do not block or cause significant interference to radiowaves reaching the Earth's surface from space.
Why does the HST get better pictures than a telescope earth?
The Hubble Space Telescope doesn't get affected by the Earth's Atmosphere. It also has the advantage of being in space so the quality and variety of images are a lot greater then any optical telescopes on Earth.
Where is Hubble Telescope located?
The Hubble Telescope is a space telescope which is approximately 559 kilometers away from the surface of the earth in a "low earth orbit" which indicates that it is orbiting under 200 kilometers.
Where is the largest telescope on earth located?
Gran Telescopio Canarias-located in Rogue de los Muchanos Observatory,La Palma,SpainCoordinates are: 28°45´23.8´´N 17°53´31.3´´W
What is the biggest telescope ever built?
Mt Graham largest on Earth, although they are building one now to be completed 2022 that will be the largest when done.
What can be seen from out of space?
In outer space, you can see the Earth, as well as planets, moons, the sun, and other stars, without being hindered by the Earth's atmosphere. It is much clearer, and having the Hubble space telescope in Earth orbit allows it to see much more than any optical telescope could ever see on the Earth's surface.
The Hubble Space Telescope is located in LEO. Does the telescope move faster or slower around the Earth compared with a geostationary weather satellite?
That is the exact questin i had!!
What is the telescope that is in orbit around the earth?
The telescope in orbit around the earth as of 2010 is the Hubble Telescope.
