It is a branch of astronomy that deals with the study of celestial objects that emit radio waves. Radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light and are typically created by stars, galaxies, and other astronomical objects that have strong magnetic fields or are in motion. Radio astronomy can be used to study the structure of galaxies, the behavior of radio waves as they pass through the interstellar medium, and the properties of cosmic rays.
