Which of the following is not a reason why telescopes tend to be built on mountaintops that are relatively far from cities and are in regions with dry climates?
 
  A) The thin air on mountaintops makes the glass in telescope mirrors less susceptible to warping.
  B) Being on a high mountain top means being relatively high in the atmosphere, which tends to limit turbulence.
  C) Dry regions mean less rain and clouds, and mountaintops in dry regions may even allow some infrared observations.
  D) Mountaintops far from cities are generally subject to less light pollution than locations nearer to cities.

Question 2

Most of first extrasolar planets found were detected by
 
  A) noting the drop in the star's light as the planet transits its disk.

  C) noting the Doppler shifts of the star as the planet orbits it from side to side.
  D) receiving radio transmissions from them, much like Jupiter emits.
  E) detecting the oxygen in their atmospheres spectroscopically.
