When do you see Eris in a telescope?

Eris can be seen in a telescope when it is at its closest approach to Earth, typically during opposition when it is opposite the Sun in the sky. Eris is located in the outer solar system in the Kuiper Belt, so it is quite small and faint, requiring a large telescope and dark skies to observe.


When did Grote Weber invent the radio telescope?

Grote Reber, not Grote Weber, is credited with building the first radio telescope in 1937. He used a parabolic antenna to observe radio waves from outer space, laying the foundation for modern radio astronomy.


What are designed for observation of planets galaxies and outer space objects?

Celestial bodies are objects in the sky. The most commonly used instrument used to observe these bodies is the human eye. The next most common are the various telescopes including optical, radio, infrared and gamma ray. The sun is also a celestial body. A simple stick placed in the ground makes an interesting instrument for observing it. If you place a mark on the ground at the top of the sticks shadow at midday for a year (or whenever you remember to do it), an interesting figure is produced. Try it out.


Can the Hubble telescope zoom in on earth?

You don't actually need a telescope to look at "Space". Just look up on a clear night sky and hey presto! You can see the Universe before your very eyes! But if you want to look at planets or you want a close up picture of the moon I suggest you use a quality telescope.
