What are the advantages of space probes?

Answer 1

Due to the dust in the earth's atmosphere, the vision of a telescope on earth will be poorer. But space telescopes can observe cosmos clearly due to the absence of dust or any other such particles.

Answer 2

Space probes can gather data from distant locations in space that are otherwise inaccessible to humans. They can operate for long periods of time under extreme conditions and can collect valuable scientific information without risking human lives. Space probes also allow for continuous monitoring and exploration of celestial bodies without the need for frequent manned missions.

Answer 3

They allow the measuring equipment and cameras to be taken much closer to the targets, the information is then recorded there and then transmitted back to earth. We can get much more detail about the object being investigated.

Answer 4

Both refracting and reflecting telescopes are used in astronomical observations.

Reflectors are easier to build and are more compact that refractors, so most of the really large telescopes are reflectors.

Answer 5

telescopes are used to see far away objects and space probes are used to examine planets and phenomena in space. Porbes can be the rovers sent to mars(spirit apportunity or Viking 1) but im sure there are better answers. Wikipedia is a great resource.

Answer 6

The biggest advantage to using robot probes is that you mostly don't care if the robots come back, or are destroyed. People, we care about.

The biggest disadvantage to using robots is that they cannot fix themselves, and can only do the jobs that they are pre-programmed to do. They have no initiative. People can react to changing conditions, and make the most of brief opportunities.

Answer 7

Because on earth the atmosphere blocks some of the light from the universe or morphs it somehow. In space you do not have that problem. Telescopes on earth however now have technology which filters the earths atmosphere but are usually used for finding asteroids or comets and plain images of stars just to map them.

Space telescopes are used to make the beautiful images you see of galaxies and nebulae but because the current location of the space telescope matters they are used less for scientific investigations which require the precise calculations and data earth telescopes give but more for visual investigations of how stars are created etc.

So earth telescopes are used for scientific measurements and data

And space telescopes more for visual images and investigations

Answer 8

The atmosphere of earth tends to distort images from space. Since Hubble operates outside earths atmosphere, the images it can produce are much more clear.

Answer 9

A telescope in space won't have problems with interference, by Earth's atmosphere.

Answer 10

not affected by earth's atmosphere
