Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
If you wanted to be able to look at the stars, the planets, and the moon more closely, what should you use?
A
Telescope
B
Periscope
C
Microscope
D
Magnifying glass
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The larger the diameter, the more light the telescope collects, allowing you to see fainter objects and more detail on nearby, bright objects like the Moon. Telescopes that have 4 or 5 inch diameters are great for viewing solar system objects like the planets, our Moon, and Jupiter’s moons.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, when shopping for a good telescope to see planets, you need to be looking for a higher focal ratio, also known as a ‘slow’ telescope. Anything with a focal length around 8 and above is known as ‘slow’ and is much more suited to planet observation than a wide-field, high low-ratio, ‘fast’ telescope.

Detailed explanation-3: -A small, modest telescope will do. Consider using telescope filters. Don’t use too high a magnification. Take advantage of misty nights. Don’t stop down your telescope. Try taking a photo of the Moon. Observe the Moon high in the sky. Don’t wait long between observations. More items •07-Jul-2022
