Unfortunately, telescopes cannot see through clouds to observe celestial objects. Clouds are composed of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that scatter and absorb light, making it impossible for telescopes to collect any meaningful data. To observe celestial objects, telescopes require a clear line of sight to the sky, free from any obstructions, including clouds.

To conduct observations during cloudy conditions, astronomers often rely on other methods such as radio telescopes or space-based observatories that are not affected by Earth's atmosphere. Radio telescopes detect radio waves emitted by celestial objects, which can penetrate clouds and other atmospheric conditions. Space-based observatories, such as the Hubble Space Telescope, are located above Earth's atmosphere, allowing them to capture detailed observations without the interference of clouds or atmospheric distortions.
