Honestly astronomy from earth is notoriously difficult, for various reasons.

• there's already a lot of light pollution, due to atmospheric light dispersion, so finding a good spot for telescopes is already difficult.
• there's the issue that images become blurred, again because atmosphere.
• We already have telescopes in space, why no re-use them with an additional camera?
