Question

Which of the following is not usually a limitation while watching space using a telescope?

• A. Inteference from city lights
• B. Decrease in the intensity of light
• C. Temperature of the location
• D. Clouds in the atmosphere

Answer 1

The correct option is C Temperature of the location

Space observations through a telescope usually face the following problems:

• The lights from buildings will interfere with the light coming from distant stars, when viewed through a telescope.
• The atmosphere is always changing. So, any dense clouds can affect the view.
• The intensity of light changes due to the long distance of stars.

However, the temperature of the location does not generally affect observing the stars.
