We live inside our universe and cannot get a bird's-eye view of it from outside. And we cannot even see all of our universe. Distant parts of it are expanding away from us so fast that they are invisible; they go faster than the speed of light. Having bigger telescopes to see fainter stars will not help us here: invisible is truly invisible.

Irish Scientist

Edwin Powell Hubble

We find them smaller and fainter, in constantly increasing numbers, and we know that we are reaching into space, farther and farther, until, with the faintest nebulae that can be detected with the greatest telescopes, we arrive at the frontier of the known universe.

American Scientist

Richard P. Feynman

What goes on inside a star is better understood than one might guess from the difficulty of having to look at a little dot of light through a telescope, because we can calculate what the atoms in the stars should do in most circumstances.

American Physicist

Neil deGrasse Tyson

I'm baffled all the time. We don't know what's driving 96% of the universe. Everybody you know and love and heard of and think about and see in the night sky through a telescope: four percent of the universe.

Dr. Seuss

Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

American Writer

Stephen Hawking

If I had a time machine, I'd visit Marilyn Monroe in her prime or drop in on Galileo as he turned his telescope to the heavens.

English Physicist

John C. Mather

We are now able to put our minds in other places in the universe with the use of telescopes. That is very exciting.

Andrea M. Ghez

The Keck telescope, which is the largest in the world, had opened just before I began my faculty position at UCLA.

Sandra Faber

Hubble is the most important telescope in history after Galileo's first telescope.

Henry Ward Beecher

Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

American Clergyman

Telescopes are primarily associated with astronomy and observing celestial bodies.

Astronomy Context

Different telescopes vary in power; stronger ones can see more distant or fainter objects.

Magnification Power

Telescopes are important scientific instruments for research, not just for casual viewing.

Scientific Instrument

When 'telescope' is used as a verb, it typically refers to a physical collapsing action.

Physical Compression

As a verb, 'telescope' often implies an unintentional or accidental action.

Accidental Occurrence

Telescoping in size or amount suggests a quick and considerable reduction.

Rapid Decrease

The use of 'telescope' meaning to decrease is not common in modern English.

Rare Usage

When used literarily, 'telescope' means summarizing or condensing time.

Summary of Time

Using 'telescope' this way is a stylistic choice, often seen in creative works.

Literary Device

 we need to do it for nearby stars however there's a big coincidence and that is is that if we look at the evolution of telescopes then what we see is that we've been making them bigger and bigger to see farther and farther and deeper and deeper into the universe take these famous telescopes here here's

 There's something seriously weird going on that perhaps, perhaps this is life. And that just blew me away. It was so exciting. So you can see that really they look very like each other. So it was a robust result, two telescopes, nothing to do with each other, saw the same thing.

 from any object observed with a telescope, we can learn what it's made of, how hot it is and how much pressure it's under, as well as whether it's moving, in what direction and how fast. And these six measurements, like six points of light, reveal the history of the universe.

What light can teach us...

 and even the largest are just fuzzy patches in the fields of high-powered telescopes. But if one of these planets is close in size to the Earth and orbits not too close and too far away from its parent star, it could be rocky and warm enough to have oceans and perhaps life.

 Aided by some distance and direction information from the neutrino detectors, the amateur astronomers and scientists alike will scan the skies and share information to quickly identify the new galactic supernova and turn the world's major telescopes in that direction.

 Think about Machine intelligence is the last invention that humanity will ever need to make. Machines will then be better at inventing than we are, and they'll be doing so on digital timescales. What this means is basically a telescoping of the future.

 has given us increasingly energetic and continuously surprising views of the universe. We are now at the dawn of the age of neutrino astronomy, and we have no idea what revelations IceCube and other neutrino telescopes may bring us

Why neutrinos matter -...

 Studying different wavelengths not only gives us a more complete picture of any single object but also different views of the universe. For this reason, astrophysicists use several different kinds of telescopes
