give three ways in which gas giants differ from other planets
rotation
earth spins on its own axis
rotation of the earth causes night and day
plsnets revolve around the sun in their own orbits
the earth revolves around the sun in its own orbit in 365 and a quarter days = a year
rotation of the moon
revolution of the moon
the movement of a body in space around another body is called
the movement of an object in space around its own axis is called
the path in which an object moves round another is called its
the time for the earth to revolve around the sun is called a
the time taken for the moon to revolve around the earth is called a
the imaginary line through the centre of the earth is called its
telescope

optical telescopes=
radio telescopes =
radio telescopes can only collect a small amount of information so we need a group of telescopes called
array
earth's atmos[here stops us getting perfect images from space so send telescopes to space that work as satelites
most famous space satellite is
telescopes in South Africa
have best conditions for observing space = plenty of good weather, clear skies, places away from lights if buildings and pollution
