There is a large amount of specific - NEW -information about the goings-on in the Cosmos. Each type of answer to this Question has a huge NASA project associated with it! Infra-red is IRAS, ultraviolet, radio waves, X-rays, Gamma-ray bursts - each has its own astounding collection of new discoveries.
There are many telescopes that detect energy outside the visible spectrum. Some of the telescopes include infrared, Fresnel imagers, ultraviolet, and submillimetre telescopes.
No, some telescopes are designed to work with ultraviolet, infrared, microwaves, radio waves, or even gamma rays.
Well several telescopes detect invisible em radiations.. terrestrial telescopes in clude all Radio telescopes.. also there are several space telescopes which make observations in the invisible region of the em spectrum. eg. Chandra x-ray telescope, XMM- Newton, even Hubble space telescope (UV region).

What type of telescopes use the visible spectrum to see the universe?

An optical telescope.


What is the advantage of using a non-Optical telescope over an optical telescope?

See things that don't shine in the visible spectrum.


Which region of the electromagnetic spectrum can easily reach a telescope on the earth's surface?

Visible light.


What might you observe with a radio telescope that you couldn't observe with an optical telescope?

Object that only shine with radio waves and not in the visible spectrum an object hidden by dust that block visible light.


Why is the red end always on the outside in the continuous spectrum?

Red is at the low frequency end of the visible spectrum.


How does a radio telescope see objects which are too dim for an ordinary telescope?

Radio Telescope observe light of a different wavelength then optical light. Radio waves have a longer wavelength then visible light. Some interstellar objects barley emit any light in the visible spectrum but emit a significant amount of radiation in the radio spectrum. Radio telescopes enable us to view objects which emit in the radio spectrum.


Are rainbows made out of visible light spectrum?

The part of the rainbow that you can see is. There's more to the rainbow than what you see ... outside the red end and outside the violet end. Those regions are composed of parts of the spectrum that are not visible.


The part of the electromagnetic spectrum you can see is called ultraviolet light?

Actually, the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see is called visible light, not ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light is outside the visible spectrum and is not visible to the human eye.


What type of telescope detects energy thats outside the visible spectrum?

Radio telescopes are designed to detect sources of electromagnetic radiation such as x-rays or other invisible emissions. They detect electromagnetic radiation from distant galaxies, including stars and planets and other astronomical radio sources. They are usually in the form of large parabolic antennas, sometimes with hundreds linked together in enormous arrays, connected to extremely sensitive radio frequency receivers.


How is an optical telescope different from the others?

An optical telescope focuses and concentrates visible light; radio telescopes focus and concentrate electromagnetic radiation (which means, "light") in the radio part of the spectrum.
