Radio Astronomy is the study of universe through analysis of radio emission.

Explanation:

Radio telescopes do this job of collecting data on the characteristics like brightness, color and motion of electromagnetic spectrum that contains all radiation from distant stars and far-distant star clusters.

In contrast, the visible spectrum is a very little part of the spectrum and so not that helpful for rigorous analysis.
