one reason the moon might be a better place than earth to study the universe is there is almost no atmosphere.

True or False
MY guess is false

and you would be wrong.

Think about it. To study the universe you need to use a telescope to view distant objects. On earth, the atmosphere makes such sightings faintly blurry. On the moon, with virtually no atmosphere, the images will be a lot clearer. That is why we have spent enormous time and effort to launch things like the Hubble space telescope, to take clear images outside earth's envelope of air.

Do a little more study, and you won't have to make guesses.
