How long will SIRTF be in space? |
Peter from

Can SIRTF make photos from other
Planets same the Hubble ? |
Clifford
from Everett, Ma
What Would The SIRTF look for
and it Cosmic scale range in
Parsecs, or astromical units? |
Upamanyu

What is the work of SIRTF in
space? |
Ben from
Brooklyn, NY
Why was an earth-trailing solar
orbit chosen for SIRTF? (as
opposed to an earth orbit, or
one that orbits the sun away
from earth). Thank you, -Ben |
dexter from
Sweden
What will it help us with? How
much did it cost? |
Peter from
Basel Swiss
How long SIRTF can stay in Space
? |
RichO
from Elk Grove, IL
With both the Hubble telescope
and SIRTF, can they be used
together to create better and
clearer images? Can the SIRTF
be used with ground base telescopes?
|
Richard
from Texarkana, Ark.
Will the SIRTF be used to view
any objects within our own solar
system? Also, will the SIRTF
be used to view the Earth in
any way? |
Carlos
from Mexico City
Will the new telescope aid in
the quest to uncover black holes?
|
Carl
from Portland
Is the SIRTF aimed at the earth
or into the vast darkness of
space and other planets? |
Sarah
from Melbourne
How long do you expect the SIRTF
mission to last? Will there
be upgrade or servicing missions
in the future for this telescope
as there have been for Hubble?
|
Richard
from Safety Harbor
How will the data be processed
and output? How soon will it
be available to the public?
|
Jennifer
from Melbourne
How soon will you start receiving
pictures from space? |
Debbie
from Melbourne
How will the data obtained be
used with the data already coming
from Hubble and Chandra? |
Dominic
from Apalachin
How will you recevieve the images
from the new SIRTF telescope?
Will the telescope have its
own satellites or will it relay
on other military satellites?
If it relays on other satellits
will they be our own or international
ones? |
Chan
from Hong Kong
Why do you launch SIRTF?Can
SIRTF detect ET or tenth planet?

How will we benefit from this
upcoming launch? |
Juan
Rodriguez from Gijon, Asturias
Are you going to use SIRTF to
study Kuiper belt objects? What
kind of information will you
obtain if so? Thanks! |
Geoff
from Buies Creek
What will SIRTF detect? |
michael
from fuquay-varina
What is the life expectancy
of the SIRTF? the cost of the
SIRTF? |
Juan
Rodriguez from Gijon (Spain)
What is the resolution of SIRTF
images. If you take a picture
of the Orion Nebula, for example,
will we see, in infrared, the
same details as in Hubble images?
|
Andrew
from Knoxville, Md
What kind of telescope is going
to be sent into space with this
infrared technology? Is it similar
to the Hubble? |
Juan
Rodriguez from Gijon, Spain
The Universe has been studied
by some infrared space observatories,
like ISO or IRAS... Are you
expecting any special discovery
with SIRTF? |
