What do telescopes do with electromagnetic radiation?
Telescopes collect and focus electromagnetic radiation, such as visible light or radio waves, to create images of objects in space. Different telescopes are designed to detect specific wavelengths of radiation to study various astronomical phenomena, from stars and planets to galaxies and black holes.
Where is the inner planets located?
The inner planets have been known about since ancient times. Astronomers in Ancient Egypt, Greece and Persia all would have studied the skies and noticed the inner planets. The planets, of course, are completely different to stars, as stars are 'fixed' in the sky (as we look at them, anyway), while planets seem to meander around going nowhere in particular. The odd behaviour led astronomers to attribute this to godly doings...
Where do you find comets?
Comets are typically found in the outer regions of the solar system, beyond the orbit of Neptune. They can be observed from Earth when they come closer to the sun and develop a visible tail due to the solar wind. Astronomers track comets using telescopes and space missions.
Planets detected via the Doppler technique have been mostly?
Planets detected via the Doppler technique have mostly been large, gas giant planets close to their host stars due to the technique's sensitivity to larger and closer-in planets causing a more noticeable wobble in the star's motion.
Why must the inner planets travel faster than the outer planets?
They are closer to the star they circulate around or the other planets and so their centre of gravity is closer, therefore the force is stronger and thus causing their rotation to increase in speed.
What evidence did early astronomers have that the planets are closer than the stars?
jupiter,saturn, uranusan neptune are called

Did the earliest telescopes make things look thousand of times closer than they were?
Yes, the earliest telescopes made things look thousand of times closer than they were, and modern telescopes still do that.
How many planets are closer to the Sun than Jupiter?
The planets closer to the Sun than Jupiter are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. So, four planets are closer than Jupiter.
Why inner planets are closer to the sun than outer planets?
The inner planets are closer to the sun than the outer planets because of the way the solar system formed. When the solar system was still a swirling disk of gas and dust, the inner planets formed closer to the center where it was hotter, while the outer planets formed in the colder regions farther away. This distribution of planets based on temperature led to the inner planets being closer to the sun than the outer planets.
What planets are closer to the sun than earth?
Mercury and Venus are the planets that are closer to the Sun than Earth.

Why are the Inner Planets generally warmer than the Outer Planets?
They are closer to the Sun.
Why are some planets called inner planets?
because they are smaller and closer to the sun
Is the sun closer to earth than a planet?
There are 2 planets that are closer to the Sun than Earth, the planets obviously being Mercury and Venus.
Is Uranus the closest to the sun?
Closer than the other planets in our Solar System? No - only Neptune is farther away, the other planets are closer to the SuUn than Uranus.Closer than the other planets in our Solar System?
