Why can we see the surface of the moon clearly through a telescope?
Explanation: We can see the surface of the moon clearly through a telescope because telescopes are made for seeing the other planets , stars and natural satellites clearly . Though moon is a natural satellite , we can see the surface of it clearly .
Is there still a flag on the Moon?
Current status A review of photographs taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) indicates that flags placed during the Apollo 12, 16, and 17 missions were still standing as of 2012.
Can we see the Moon landings through a telescope?
To conclude, yes, it’s theoretically possible to observe visual signs of the moon landings through telescopes, but with the technology we have at our disposal today, all you’d see is a bunch of dots (if that) if you tried looking at the lunar surface for proof (or a lack of proof) of the landings.
What were the signs of the Apollo landings on the Moon?
Visual signs of the Apollo landings on the lunar surface. You can see that the landings left quite a few imprints on the lunar surface in the form of small blast craters and human footprints, as well as multiple artifacts, including the American flag, the base of the lunar modules and moon rovers.
What does the Moon look like to the Hubble Space Telescope?
In fact, if you do the math (set Hubble’s resolution to 0.1 arcseconds and the distance to 400,000 kilometers) you see that Hubble’s resolution on the Moon is about 200 meters! In other words, even a football stadium on the Moon would look like a dot to Hubble. That’s a pretty big surprise to most people.
Can we see the Apollo Lunar Module descent stages?
As you’re well aware, no telescope on Earth can see the leftover descent stages of the Apollo Lunar Modules or anything else Apollo-related. Not even the Hubble Space Telescope can discern evidence of the Apollo landings. The laws of optics define its limits.
