What else can I help you with?
When was the hubbe speca telescope HST first launchand into orbit?
It has only been launched into orbit once. That was in 1990.
Why does a telescope in orbit gives clear pictures?
Telescopes in orbit are not affected by atmospheric turbulence, which can distort images taken by ground-based telescopes. This allows for clearer and sharper images to be captured by telescopes in orbit. Additionally, being above the Earth's atmosphere reduces the amount of light pollution and interference, further improving image quality.
Why are some telescopes launched into space?
Some of the best telescopes are in orbit because the earth atmosphere distorts the light from distant stars,which is something scientist and astronomers would rather avoid.
Why can smaller parallax angles be measured by telescopes in Earth orbit?
Earth's atmosphere does not limit a telescope's resolving power.
Why do astronomers find it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescopes-?
Light from the stars they orbit makes it difficult to see them.

Why are there no astronomical telescopes in orbit?
There are several astronomical telescopes in orbit. The most famous is of course the Hubble, but COROT, MOST, and the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Observer are all visible light telescopes in orbit around Earth, and there's another - Kepler - that doesn't orbit Earth, but does orbit the Sun. There are also a multitude of orbital telescopes that use segments of the electromagnetic spectrum other than visible. Spitzer, for example, uses infrared light (it's another solar orbiter).
Why are x-ray telescopes and gamma - ray telescopes in space?
The earth's atmosphere doesn't let these rays reach the ground, so the telescopes are placed in orbit where they can receive the rays.
Why are not all telescopes put into orbit?
It's the cost of it, it costs too much.

Why do you put teloscopes in orbit?
In orbit, the telescopes are not hindered by atmospheric turbulence, nor by clouds. But it is especially the turbulence that hinders telescopes on Earth; in outer space, you can get much clearer pictures. Another reason is that not all radiation reaches Earth's surface in significant amounts; for example, most ultraviolet or infrared radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere. Telescopes that detect those must needs be in outer space.

Why are near infrared telescopes located on mountaintops and ultraviolet telescopes in Earth orbit?
Mountaintops are ideal for near-infrared telescopes because the high altitude reduces atmospheric interference and light pollution. Ultraviolet telescopes are placed in Earth orbit to avoid absorption of ultraviolet light by Earth's atmosphere, which allows for clearer observations of objects emitting in the ultraviolet spectrum.
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.
What is the duration of First Orbit?
The duration of First Orbit is 1.75 hours.
