Answered by nayanavikaskarpdk2v1

Optical telescopes are located in uninhabited places on mountains in order to avoid the distortion of starlight caused due to the atmosphere. ... The myth that astronomers build them on tall mountains to be more close to the objects they are viewing is totally wrong.
