PDF-(DOWNLOAD)-Sun and Moon: A Story of Astronomy, Photography and Cartography

A spectacular pictorial history of astronomical exploration for anyone who has gazed at the sky and wondered what lies beyondFrom the beginning of time human beings have looked up at the stars and speculated on other worlds Published to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the first moon landing Sun and Moon tells the story of that burning human need to comprehend the universe from Neolithic observatories that mark the solstice to the latest space telescopes It shows for the first time how the development of photography and cartography the means of documenting other worlds is linked indelibly to the charting of the heavens from the first image on a glass plate to the Hubble Space Telescope. Cartography is dead And then lets thank our lucky stars that after the better part of a century mapmaking is freeing itself from the dead hand of academia Thats the crux of the matter even as cartography was shanghaiing mapmaking university geograph By : Zora Reyes.

We live on an ordinary rocky planet called Earth, one of nine known planets orbiting an average star called Sun. We are near the edge of a huge collection of stars called the Milky Way Galaxy, which is one galaxy among countless billions of other galaxies spread throughout the observable universe..

Why does the moon go through phases?. What causes a lunar eclipse?. What causes a solar eclipse?. How can eclipses be predicted?. objects outside the Earth (astronomical objects). Ancient Astronomy. “Ancient” means from . time long past, especially before the end of the Western Roman Empire in 476 A.D.. Many ancient peoples, including in ancient China and India, made detailed observations about the objects in the sky. Section 22C. The sun’s motions. Apparent motion. The sun’s motion across the sky as we see it. Caused by the earth’s rotation. Ecliptic – the line marking the apparent path of the sun against the background of the stars as the sun moves around the earth.. Tilted on an axis (N-S pole) 23.5 degrees. Earth moves in space two major ways. Rotation. - spinning of Earth on its axis. West to East, 15 degrees per hour or once per day, counterclockwise. This causes day and night—half the Earth is always lit and have it always dark. Earth, Moon, and Sun Gravity and Motion Isaac Newton was the first scientist to explain what keeps the Earth and Moon in orbit Force – a push or a pull There is a force acting between the Earth and the moon that keeps them in orbit
