A radio telescope is a form of directional radio antenna used in radio astronomy. The same types of antennas are also used in tracking and collecting data from satellites and space probes. In their astronomical role they differ from optical telescopes in that they operate in the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum where they ca...

Astronomers use radio telescopes to help build up a picture of the Universe. Since radio waves can penetrate Earth's atmosphere, we can detect them by building large antennae or dishes. The radio part of the spectrum provides an alternative and complimentary view of the Universe - importantly radio waves convey information about much lower energy e...
