Why astronomers have difficulty looking at distant stars except?

Astronomers have difficulty looking at distant stars because while we have highly specialized telescopes, they are in constant contention with various other celestial bodies. In addition to this, the light of distant stars takes hundreds of thousands of years to reach us, making it impossible to get a current look at a distant star.


Do nearby stars have larger angles than distant stars have?

Yes, nearby stars generally have larger parallax angles than distant stars. Parallax is the apparent shift in the position of a star when observed from different points in Earth's orbit around the Sun. The closer a star is to Earth, the greater the angle of this shift, making it easier to measure compared to more distant stars, which exhibit much smaller angles due to their greater distances.


What is the main use of the telescope?

to see a distant objects..like stars..


What are not a reason that astronomers have trouble viewing distant start?

Astronomers do not have trouble viewing distant stars due to their brightness, as many distant stars are incredibly luminous. Instead, challenges arise from factors like cosmic dust obscuring light, the expansion of the universe redshifting light from distant objects, and limitations of current telescope technology. Additionally, atmospheric interference can hinder ground-based observations, but these issues are not related to the inherent brightness of the stars themselves.


Do distant galaxies rise and set like the stars in your sky?

Distant galaxies do not rise and set like stars in the sky. Their positions in the sky are fixed relative to our perspective on Earth. The apparent motion of rising and setting is a phenomenon caused by the rotation of our planet.

What cause changes in the light coming from distant stars and galaxies?

The apparent redshift is caused by the Doppler Effect; the frequency of waves is increased by an approaching source and decreased by a leaving source. Since the fgrequencies we see from stars are slightly lower than they should be, we know that the stars and other objects are moving away. The Doppler Effect causes changes of light emanating from distant stars and galaxies.
