Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ultraviolet and X-ray radiation are absorbed by the gas and dust in the plane of our Galaxy, making it difficult to receive information from objects embedded in these clouds. Therefore, astronomers do not use receivers sensitive in these ranges to study these objects. On the other hand, infrared and radio radiation are less affected by the absorption and can penetrate the gas and dust clouds, making them useful for studying objects in the plane of our Galaxy.
