Because the light from these objects is the primary means to study them, one of the most important tools for an astronomer is the telescope.n. Objects of interest include planets, moons, stars, galaxies, and comets; while the phenomena include supernova explosions, gamma ray bursts, and cosmic microwave background radiation.
