<span>Two of them are "redshift" and "blueshift", which are used to describe an object'smotion toward or away from us in space. Redshift indicates that an object is moving away from us.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

adaptive optics.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

A telescope can be defined as an optical instrument or device which comprises of a curved mirror and lenses used for viewing distant objects i.e objects that are very far away such as stars and other planetary bodies.

The technique called adaptive optics uses a high-speed computer to monitor atmospheric distortion and adjust the optics of a telescope to partially compensate for the seeing.

Basically, adaptive optics is used by astronomers to correct the distortions caused by the turbulence of the atmospheric conditions of the Earth in real-time, so as to have an image that is as sharp as anyone taken in space.

How can we search for evidence that other planets were once habitable?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Hey

Good question

How can we know if I planet was once inhabited by life? There diferent tequnecs for this. The first would be searching in the soil for fossilized microbes. in June of 19, 1976 Viking 1 was launched on its way to mars to began the search of life els wear. What this little lab did was drill a hole in the marsion terrain and take a sample of its soil to search for microbes or microbe fosles. Sadly it did not find anything. Other technics are to search for ruins on the planet or exoplanet. I do not have much to say about this method because it has never been used.

Hope it helped (i wrote all that).
