Ans) An infrared telescope on a mountain top in peru
in reality we need all kinds of telescope because every electomagnetic waves from outer space is useful to delineate the universe, and each wavelength gives different views and data about the source and structures. but when we built a telescope we have to consider so many things to ensure the functioning and quality of data acquisition. the primary problem is our atmosphere which reduces the quality of data, so its always better to go higher in atmosphere as the height increases air density decreases so its effect on these radiations. so, from all these telescope an infrared telescope on a mountain is reasonable one so that the output of the telescope will gives a good quality results.

Imagine you are part of a NASA project that is going to fund one telescope project. You have many proposals in front of you to evaluate. You have been told to use the following criteria to evaluate the proposals: Some telescopes have to be placed in space because the Earth's atmosphere does not allow all electromagnetic wavelengths to reach the Earth's surface. (You may wish to re-read the lecture notes in this module so you know which wavelength regions reach...
