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.
What is long-wave electromagnetic radiations used in special telescopes?
Long-wave electromagnetic radiation used in special telescopes includes infrared radiation and submillimeter radiation. These telescopes are designed to detect and study objects that emit or reflect these longer wavelengths of light, allowing astronomers to observe phenomena such as cool stars, cosmic dust, and molecular clouds.
Telescopes cannot detect?
Telescopes can not detect any radiation for which they were not specifically built. For example, a radio telescope is specifically designed to detect radio waves. Also, telescopes can not detect radiation that is too faint for them. What is too faint depends on the capabilities of the telescope.
How is a radio telescope similar to a refracting telescope and a reflecting telescope?
Radio telescopes, refracting telescopes, and reflecting telescopes all use mirrors or lenses to collect and focus incoming electromagnetic radiation. The main difference is the wavelength of the radiation they are designed to study – radio telescopes focus on radio waves, refracting telescopes focus on visible light, and reflecting telescopes focus on a variety of wavelengths including visible light, ultraviolet, and infrared.
Is the design of radio telescopes very similar to the design of refracting telescopes?
No, radio telescopes and refracting telescopes have different designs and functions. Radio telescopes are designed to detect radio waves from space, whereas refracting telescopes use lenses to bend light to create images of distant objects. While both types of telescopes have a common goal of observing the universe, their designs are optimized for different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
Why do you not have groundbased gamma ray and x-ray telescopes?
Because radiation at those wavelengths is absorbed in the atmosphere, and very little of it ever reaches the ground. Operated on the ground, those telescopes would see almost nothing.
How do scientist study invisible radiation from objects in space?
They study visible light by using optical telescopes.
What other kinds of radiation are detected by telescopes?
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
What do telescopes do with electromagnetic radiation?

Different telescopes are designed to detect specific wavelengths of radiation to study various astronomical phenomena, from stars and planets to galaxies and black holes.
Why is radiation invisible to the human eye?
Radiation is invisible to the human eye because it has a wavelength that is outside the visible spectrum. This means that the energy emitted by radiation is not within the range that our eyes can detect, making it invisible to us.
Is infrared radiation invisible?
yes
The invisible from the sun is called?
radiation
What is invisible radiation?
Invisible radiation refers to electromagnetic waves that are not visible to the human eye, such as ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Although these forms of radiation cannot be seen, they can have various effects on living organisms and materials. Protection measures are often required when working with invisible radiation to prevent harmful exposure.
Is ultraviolet radiation visible or invisible?
By definition, ultra-violet light is outside the visible spectrum of EM radiation. Thus it is defined as invisible.
Do digital telescopes exist?
No, digital telescopes don't exist. The telescope which we know are optical telescopes and what NASA uses are radiation based telescopes, or something related to radioactivity. As far I know, I've never heard about digital telescopes.
What kind of radiation do we experience as invisible heat?
Invisible heat radiated from objects is in the form of infrared radiation. This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye but can be felt as heat when it strikes the skin.
Is the infrared radiation almost invisible for the atmosphere?
