SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Some places in the universe are too distant for humans to observe directly. Which of these technologies is used to observe these distant places? Refracting telescopes use lenses.

Detailed explanation-2: -Remote sensing is the acquiring of information from a distance. NASA observes Earth and other planetary bodies via remote sensors on satellites and aircraft that detect and record reflected or emitted energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Several kinds of space exploration technologies are used to explore space. For example, fly-bys, orbiters, landers, rovers, and telescopes can be used to observe, collect data, and take images far beyond Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -A probe is a spacecraft that travels through space to collect science information. Probes do not have astronauts. Probes send data back to Earth for scientists to study.

Detailed explanation-5: -The three types of space probes are interplanetary probes, orbiters, and landers.

Detailed explanation-6: -Space technology can be used to explore other planets, study the universe, and provide communication and navigation services to support human activities. It encompasses everything from satellites and other instruments to the human aspects of space travel, such as astronautics, physics, chemistry, and biology.
