The Moon has no sustained atmosphere. What advantages would you have if you built an
observatory on the lunar surface? (Select all that apply.)
Without atmospheric turbulence, there would be no image blur due to seeing.
There is no atmosphere to absorb or scatter radiation, so all wavelengths of light could be
observed with lunar-based telescopes, from radio waves to gamma rays.
The Moon is closer to many stars than the Earth, and lunar-based telescopes would produce
images with more detail based on this closer proximity.
On Earth, large mirrors in telescopes can sag under their own weight. Without an atmosphere to
apply pressure, mirrors on the Moon would not sag.
We could observe continuously because there would never be any clouds.
We could observe during the day. Without an atmosphere, sunlight is not scattered and the sky
remains dark.
Distortion of mirrors due to temperature shifts would no longer be an issue, without an
atmosphere to retain the heat from sunlight.

The Moon has no sustained atmosphere- What advantages would you have i.pdf

  • 1. The Moon has no sustained atmosphere. What advantages would you have if you built an observatory on the lunar surface? (Select all that apply.) Without atmospheric turbulence, there would be no image blur due to seeing. There is no atmosphere to absorb or scatter radiation, so all wavelengths of light could be observed with lunar-based telescopes, from radio waves to gamma rays. The Moon is closer to many stars than the Earth, and lunar-based telescopes would produce images with more detail based on this closer proximity. On Earth, large mirrors in telescopes can sag under their own weight. Without an atmosphere to apply pressure, mirrors on the Moon would not sag. We could observe continuously because there would never be any clouds. We could observe during the day. Without an atmosphere, sunlight is not scattered and the sky remains dark. Distortion of mirrors due to temperature shifts would no longer be an issue, without an atmosphere to retain the heat from sunlight.
