What are the most sophisticated technologies trhat astronomers have to look into space?

Hmm...the Hubble has surely helped with that, for one. The observories here on Earth are incredibly sophisticated, with high-powered lenses. When a probe drifts into space, I suupose it can still take distant pictures if it has battery power left.

if you have a good enough telescope - you can see some stuff.\nyou can also see the robotic tractor that was left on Mars. (though you need more than a standard telescope for that)\nIt has been done by many people

I would list first  the late Vikram Sarabhai and his Physical Research Laboratory at Ahmedabad. I am consciously omitting space technologists from the list. Another great institution for space sciences is the Tata Institute of Fundamental research at Mumbai. Another source is the Indian National Committee for Space Research. A visit to their web sites will help identify individual researchers. They are too many to name.

100 years might be a bit quick, but I think this may happen faster than one might think at first.\n\nRay Kurzweil is a well-known predictor of technology trends and suggests that the technology to 'move' a person from their brain to an electronic replica will happen in the not-so-distant future. Once this is possible, the technology needed for interstellar flights will be greatly simplified because any approach to transport a human (as they currently live, in a biological body) would consume incredible resources just to provide an environment in which they could survive.

There have been many systems identified, some with multiple planets and a few with asteroid belts. The problem is that they are mostly discovered by measuring the minute movements of the star caused by gravitational influences of nearby orbiting objects, so most of the discoveries to date have been systems with relatively large planets (many times larger than our Jupiter) and quite close to the star so that the movement is more easily detected. Recently however, there have been more sensitive sensor arrays which have been able to resolve more "normal" configurations using sophisticated imagery, so there is hope for discoveries of systems more similar to our own in the near future. In any event, given the tremendous distances involved, the resolution of optical telescopes available in the foreseeable future would pretty much preclude any traditional photograph of such a system if it were to be found. There have been some rather blurry computer images generated from these other imaging systems, but I'd hardly call them photographs. Try monitoring <space.com>

They study the science of objects and matter beyond the earth's atmosphere and their interactions in space.

To start with the chioces are good enough.\n\nHowever, for their use keep in mind that you won't be able to see stars. What you can see is reach to the moon, planets, settellites of different planets, steroids and and man made settelites. \n\nFor these observations you will need assistance of different maps and schedule of movements. This will enable you to go to higher observations. \n\nYes the first advice is good, join a club, read books and be in contact at internet.

The Bradford telescope at the website below is the best:\n\nhttp://www.telescope.org/

Maybe you could make use of a giant mirror orbiting directly above you geostationarily in space.\n\nSo you could see your house... from the sky. :)

just punch in solar system on search. or constellations

At the nearest celestial observatory.  Y'may have to drive a few hours and walk a ways, but many of them do allow public tours.  Call ahead and ask.  Those connected with Cal Tech used to be particularly happy to have visitors.\n\nWhat'll happen is, they'll show you around the observatory, tell you what projects they're working on and give you an idea of why it's important.  They'll allow you to view whatever their telescopes are looking at during your visit.  Those images will in most cases be displayed on a computer screen.  Some observatories, but not all, will have one or more optical telescopes that they'll let you look through to get a direct look at whatever they're focussed on during your visit.  \n\nAlternatively, some amateur astronomers will let you take a peek through their own telescopes.  A favorite way of getting the public involved is to host a "star party".  That's usually where an astronomy club invites the public to come to a park or the beach where club members bring their instruments to show off to the public.  Some of them will have dozens of instruments you can get a good look at.\n\nThe reason for this is, no matter where on earth you go, you cannot see much more than about ten thousand stars from any vantage point, whereas even a modest telescope can show you many times that number by allowing you to view celestial objects that are too dim or too close together to be seen by the unaided human eye.\n\nGo for it!  It's fun!

The scientist in charge of this project were taking extra care with picture preparation. Go to the site and you will see that around May 17th I think we can start looking for the particles from space.\nSee link below for Stardust at Home

Its discovered a lot of new galaxies, moons, comets, etc.  It is finding out lots about black holes etc.  I think astromers are finding out new things about our universe all the time thanks to the Hubble Telescope.

First, the type of telescope you want depends mainly on what kind of observing you want to do. If you're mostly interested in deep space, get yourself what's called a REFLECTOR. I have an 8" Meade reflector and under good "seeing" conditions can observe just about every star in our galaxy visible from the Northern Hemisphere, plus structures beyond the Milky Way up to about 10-billion light years. Just be sure and buy a reflector system that has a clock drive. This makes it possible to stay locked on to some object without having to constantly move the 'scope tube to compensate for Earth's rotation.\n\nIf you're into Solar System observing, then a refractor will do nicely. They don't gather as much light as a reflector, but the resolution is much better--plus images aren't inverted as with most reflectors.\n\nCelestron Inc puts out the Cadillac of telescopes, but Meade provides very good products at less cost. Do NOT buy any telescope from retail stores like K-Mart, Sears, etc.,. Most of the stuff is cheap junk. Either buy mail order from Celestron or Meade, or visit a store that sells nothing but astronomy-related things.\n\nGod is spelled B-I-G B-A-N-G\nPBrax@netscape.com

From your own hard work and effort. Noone here will do anyone's homework for them.\n\nMy suggestion - if it is a project on astronomy, quote a famous astronomer, like Percivel Lowell. If it is a project on the large nature of the universe, find a catchy quote by Einstein or Stephen Hawking. And if the project concerns the space program, you'll find wise words from any astronaut who has been up there and made awestruck comments about what it is like.

Well I like it myself!!\nIf your interested in astronomy etc. I hope you like the following site.\n\nhttp://space.com
