What else can I help you with?
Most optical telescopes used by professional astronauts are housed in what?
observeries?
Is refracting telescopes bigger then reflecting telescopes?
Not necessarily. Refracting telescopes can be large, but reflecting telescopes can also be quite large and often have larger apertures due to their design. The size of a telescope depends on its purpose and design specifications rather than whether it is refracting or reflecting.
Why have no large refracting telescopes been built since 1900?
Refracting telescopes suffer from chromatic aberration, refracting telescopes have several surfaces to shape and polish, making large glass lenses without interior defects is very difficult, and large glass lenses are more difficult to support than large mirrors.
Are telescopes dangerous?
Telescopes are not dangerous in normal operation. A large telescope might hurt you if it fell on you.
What do you call a building where you look at stars at?
well, it would usually be an observatory.....
What are the bulidings called where optical telescopes are found?
The word "Observatory" is used to refer to a dedicated building where large optical telescopes are housed. This usually includes a protective dome that can be opened or retracted to observe the stars.

What are apartment buildings in poor condition that often housed large or extended families?
Tenements
Reflecting telescopes differ from refracting telescopes in having what?
Two large objective lenses.
Why big telescopes?
Large telescopes have improved resolution over small telescopes and as such can gather clearer images of objects further away.

Why are large telescopes made?
to see uranus

What radio astronomy?
That refers to researching the Universe by observing radio waves. Special telescopes - radiotelescopes - are built for this purpose; they are often quite large.
where are telescopes kept?
Telescopes are typically housed in observatories, which can be located in remote areas to minimize light pollution and atmospheric disturbances. They may also be found in research institutions, universities, and even some private homes. Many modern telescopes, especially space telescopes like the Hubble, are placed in orbit to avoid Earth's atmospheric interference. Additionally, some portable telescopes are kept by amateur astronomers for personal use.
