Radio telescopes power point

Editor's Notes

  1. The signals are analyzed and classified to determine the nature of the source. This gives us more knowledge of astronomy. They are a tool used in understanding the universe.
  2. Radio telescopes can do many things. These are the main functions of them.
  3. Usually many telescopes are arranged to get a better resolution.
  4. The dish can be made out of metal or wire mesh. The antenna is above the dish. The signal is sent to the amplifier and into the computer.
  5. The dish must be parabolic shaped to reflect the signal to the antenna. Mesh Is a good reflector material for the dish.
  6. The dish must be parabolic shaped. The dish reflects radio waves to an antenna that is above the dish. The signal is sent to the amplifier for a stronger signal and to the computer for an image.
  7. In order to collect the needed amount of photons the radio telescope needs to be bigger. The bigger the dish the better the picture.
  8. Karl Jansky he was an engineer and worked for Bell Telephones. The telescope was mounted on four model t tires so it could be rotated. The size of the telescope was about 100 ft in diameter.
  9. The two main kinds of designs that are different from the rest are Haystack and Westford telescopes.
  10. Located in Wexford, Massachusetts
  11. NASA uses this a lot as a test and to show.
  12. It is operated by Cornell University. Has filmed many notable motion pictures.
  13. This is not very often used but scientist are very interested in listening to radio telescopes.
  14. These are things that would not have been discovered if it were not for the radio telescope.
