Question

Which technology can allow a single ground-based telescope to achieve images as sharp as those from the Hubble Space Telescope?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "Adaptive Optics".

Explanation:

• AO (Adaptive Optics) is a technique used to enhance optical system performance by reducing the impact of incoming gravitational wave distortions by compressing a mirror to compensate for the distortion.
• It operates by calculating and compensating for defects in a wave-front with a system that corrects these errors as a deformable mirror or even a liquid crystal collection.

• It is a technique that can make it possible for a single ground-based telescope to get images as clear as that of the Hubble Space Telescope.

• Certain methods can achieve power resolution that exceeds the limit set by atmospheric distortion, for example, Aperture synthesis, Lucky imaging, and Speckle imaging.

Therefore, Adaptive Optics is the right answer.
