What else can I help you with?
Is it easier to examine Neptune with a telescope from Earth or with an orbiter?
The use of a telescope from orbit is going to be more clear. It is not very easy to do so, though. The orbit eliminates atmospheric interference. However, you have to get the telescope into orbit in order to use it. And connect to it from your remote location.
What is the difference between formal telescope and space telescope?
I think that a land-based telescope has the atmosphere as an obstacle for good observations, while the space telescope hasn't, so the images taken are more defined. Moreover, the earth orbit of the space telescope allows it to get a wide range of angles. Text by Jim West70
What problem does an earth - based telescope have that a space - baced telescope does not have?
An earth-based telescope has to contend with atmospheric turbulence, which can distort and blur images. This is not a concern for a space-based telescope, which operates above Earth's atmosphere and can provide clearer images.
How far above earth does the hubble space telescope orbit?
The Hubble Space Telescope is 600km above the Earth's surface.
What problem does an earth - based telescope have that a space - based telescope does not have?
Atmospheric and environmental interference.
Are Mars moons observable from earth?
You would need a telescope to see the moons of Mars, Phobos and Diemos, since their apparent magnitudes are +11.3 and +12.4 respectively. But with a good telescope and good conditions you can see them from Earth.
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.
Which one of NASA's Great Observatories was the first to be launched and is still gathering information on Earth and its location in the galaxy?
hubble telescope

Have earth been seen at night without a telescope?
Earth does not need a telescope, look down.
Can neptune be seen without a telescope at night?
No. No. You need a telescope to see Neptune.Nope... Neptune cannot be seen from the Earth without a telescope.
What is the name of NASA's most famous telescopes?
NASA's most famous telescope is probably the Hubble Telescope that orbits the earth.
Is earth discovered by telescope?
no
Was earth discovered by a telescope?
No.

Can earth be seen without a telescope why or why not?
Earth can easily be seen without a telescope, simply look close to your feet, you are standing on it. Earth is the planet that we live on.
