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.

How long have astronomers been looking for a new planet?
Since the beginning of astronomy. Astronomers are ALWAYS looking for new things.
Do astronomers know how to build?
Some astronomers are likely to be good at DIY, but most would probably get a contractor in.
What scientist studies the galaxy?

Why there is constellation?
So the earlier astronomers can locate things in the sky.. They used the constellations to help them point out certain things
What did many astronomers believe about galaxies in the 1920s?
Among other things, that they were static in space
Is there any other astronomers that are also scientists?
All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.All astronomers are scientists.
Are astronauts and astronomers the same?
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.
How do astronomers abtain most of their information about space?
We use telescopes or satellites
Can astronomers can now visit most of the objects that they study?
Not without their spaceship.
