Solution

The statement most logically completing the text is: "will likely continue to be used primarily to observe objects outside the solar system." This is because the recommendation by Young and colleagues implies that a new telescope dedicated exclusively to solar-system observations would be beneficial, suggesting that the HST is currently used primarily for observations outside the solar system.

by NASA and STScI (adapted excerpt)Orbiting 360 miles above Earth, the Hubble Space Telescope is positioned high above the blurring effects of the atmosphere. From this vantage point, it captures images with 10 times the typical clarity of any ground-based telescope and views not only visible light but also wavelengths1 of near-infrared and ultraviolet light that cannot reach Earth's surface. To operate from orbit, the observatory works like any other scientific or imaging spacecraft; it converts the optical data it collects into electrical signals that are transmitted back to Earth. It must also withstand the airless, high-radiation, and harsh thermal environment of space.Unlike most other spacecraft, however, Hubble was designed to be serviced periodically by astronauts and so was built with modular components that are astronaut-friendly to handle and replace. This design strategy has enabled it to operate longer than ordinary spacecraft and to benefit from the technological advancements of the last two decades. Astronauts have visited the telescope five times to upgrade its computers, mechanisms, and instruments. These servicing missions have kept the observatory at the forefront of discovery by providing it with increasingly sensitive and accurate components. The last of these servicing calls was in May 2009.1.  the distance between one light wave from any one point to the next point of corresponding phase1Choose the correct answer.Which statement best expresses the central idea of the passage? A. The Hubble observatory lacks the latest technological advancements of the last decade. B. The Hubble observatory requires astronauts to regularly repair it due to its failing parts. C. The Hubble observatory is designed to study planets from the perspective of space. D. The Hubble observatory is designed to function and be maintained while in orbit.

Which is the best telescope to see planets?

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), launched in late 2021, represents a significant advancement in infrared astronomy, with capabilities far exceeding those of its predecessors. Its mission includes peering into the earliest galaxies formed after the Big Bang, studying the formation of stars and planetary systems, and examining the atmospheres of exoplanets for potential signs of life. Given the JWST's focus on deep space phenomena and its enhanced resolution and sensitivity, NASA scientist Emma B. Rossi and her team propose that future missions should prioritize the development of complementary technologies that enable detailed surface mapping of exoplanets and moons within our solar system. Rossi and her team’s suggestion thus implies that the JWST ______15Mark for ReviewABCWhich choice most logically completes the text?Awill primarily be utilized for observing distant astronomical phenomena rather than detailed studies of solar system objects.Blacks the capability to conduct surface mapping of solar system bodies at the level of detail envisioned by Rossi and her team.Ccould be repurposed for solar system exploration if future technological advancements allow for it.Dis the only telescope capable of identifying potential signs of life on exoplanets, making other observational tools unnecessary.
