In general, astronomers seek an understanding of how the Universe works; from the planets in our own Solar System, to the evolution of stars and nebulae, to whole systems of galaxies, to the properties and fate of the Universe as a whole. Modern astronomy is an interdisciplinary science that relies upon, and furthers the development of, fields such as physics, chemistry, computer science, and mathematics.
Only the very nearest astronomical objects (all within our Solar System) can be reached by spacecraft in a reasonable amount of time. Information about all other objects comes indirectly from earth-bound telescopes or earth-orbiting satellites, which observe light emitted or reflected from such objects. The collection and detailed analysis of this light is key to unlocking the mysteries of the observable Universe. The sole purpose of a telescope is to collect this light; it is the role of the astronomer to analyze and interpret this data.
astronomers do what they do because they want to find bigger and better things that have yet to be discovered.
The telescope helps astronomers the most when studying the sky.
Since the beginning of astronomy. Astronomers are ALWAYS looking for new things.
Some astronomers are likely to be good at DIY, but most would probably get a contractor in.
Astronomers. They study all things about space.
So the earlier astronomers can locate things in the sky.. They used the constellations to help them point out certain things
Among other things, that they were static in space
All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.
No, astronauts are individuals who travel to space and conduct research or maintenance on spacecraft, while astronomers are scientists who study celestial objects and phenomena from Earth. Astronomers typically use telescopes to observe and analyze stars, planets, galaxies, and other cosmic bodies.
We use telescopes or satellites
Not without their spaceship.
According to the International Astronomical Union, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
