Telescopes

The planet closest to the sun is Mercury, with an average distance of 36,000,000 miles, or 57,900,000 kilometers between the two.

Some major events that have happened to Mercury include impacts from asteroids and comets that have created craters on its surface, the cooling and contraction of its interior leading to the formation of cliffs and ridges, and the bombardment of solar wind particles causing its thin atmosphere to constantly escape into space.

Reflecting Telescopes -uses a single or combination of curved mirrors to bring light to a focus and make an image.

To collect visible light emitted / reflected / scattered from a distant body, and increase the apparent size (or at least the intensity) of the image specularly, so that features can be discerned / observed.

Hans Lippershey, a Dutch eyeglass maker, and Galileo Galilei, an Italian astronomer, are credited with independently developing the telescope in the early 17th century. Lippershey filed the first known patent for a telescope in 1608, while Galileo made significant improvements to the design and used it to make groundbreaking astronomical observations.

You can see things with the naked eye- you can see them well. They are cheap. They are easy to use (you don't need training) Easy availability (you can get them from Tesco's) They gave us good early info (Gallieo used them to try and prove that the Earth revolved round the sun- not the other way round!) •

Radios are electronic devices which grab signals and turn them into sound. They are composed of electrical circuits and of the various electrical and electronic components that are needed to make those circuits which in turn make the radio itself work.

Galileo Galilei is credited with inventing the telescope in the early 17th century, which he used to make significant astronomical discoveries. The thermometer was invented by Galileo's contemporary, but it is unclear who the exact inventor was because the concept of a scale measuring temperature had been developed by multiple scientists around the same time period.

Before the telescope, people were aware of the Sun, Moon, and visible planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn). They were also familiar with comets and meteors as occasional celestial events. Overall, the understanding of celestial bodies was limited compared to what we know today with the aid of telescopes and advanced technology.

Isaac Newton did not invent the telescope, but he did improve upon it by designing the Newtonian telescope in the 17th century. This telescope uses a concave mirror to reflect and focus light, allowing for a clearer and sharper image. Newton's design helped to overcome some of the limitations of previous telescope models.

The largest reflecting telescope in Asia is located at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan in Okayama Prefecture. It is known as the Subaru Telescope and has a primary mirror that measures 8.2 meters (27 feet) in diameter.

Yes, a radio telescope is an instrument specifically designed to detect and measure radio waves emitted by celestial objects in space. It is used to study and observe radio emissions from various astronomical sources, providing valuable information about the universe.

The highest ground-based telescope functioning since 2001 is the Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT) located in Mexico. It is situated on the summit of Sierra Negra, a dormant volcano in the state of Puebla, at an altitude of 4,580 meters (15,026 feet) above sea level.

100,000 can be expressed as 1 x 10^5 in scientific notation or as 10^5 in powers of ten.

In The Sims 2 for PS2, the Truth Telescope is an object that allows your Sims to discover other Sims' secrets and motives. Sims can use it to gather information on their relationships or to uncover hidden aspects of other Sims' personalities. It can lead to new interactions and story developments within the game.

The concept of getting dizzy is based on liquid that is somewhere inside your head near both of you ears. When you spin around and around, that liquid keeps swiahing around too. When you stop, the liquid is still spinning, so you still feel like your spinning. That's how you get dizzy. So yes obviously now you can get dizzy in space.

Galileo did not invent the telescope, but he made significant improvements to its design and was one of the first to use it for astronomical observations in the early 17th century. The telescope was actually invented in the Netherlands by Hans Lippershey around 1608.

The Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn also used gyroscopes to stabilize and control the spacecraft during its mission. Gyroscopes are commonly used in spacecraft to help maintain orientation and stability in the absence of gravity.

To debug the telescope in Sims 2, you can press Ctrl + Shift + C to bring up the cheat console, then type "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" and press Enter. After that, shift + click on the telescope and choose the "Debug" option to fix any issues with it. Remember to turn off the testing cheats after you're done by entering "boolprop testingcheatsenabled false" in the cheat console.

because he wanted to know a way to look at the night sky and the planets up in full detail and much much closer because he was imensly interested in Astronomy and wanted to study the planets.

No, only specially designed rockets can go up into space. As soon as a helicopter reaches our atmosphere boundaries, it would burn up. Rockets on the other hand, have been specially made to hold such extreme temperatures. :)

Isaac Newton did not invent the telescope. The telescope was actually invented by Hans Lippershey in 1608. Newton's contributions to science were in the fields of physics, mathematics, and astronomy, particularly with his laws of motion and the development of calculus.
