Evidence for an accelerating Universe . Lesson 1. Stars. • The Sun and stars appear to move from east-to-west across the sky.. • They are not really moving. It is the rotation of the Earth that gives this illusion.. Stars. • Stars are ball-shaped masses of superheated . Physical quantities. Any quantity that can be quantified by measurement is a physical quantity . Most of the quantities we deal with as scientists are physical quantities and they will be the ones we will discuss throughout this topic of motion.. The properties of matter must be measured correctly and reported without ambiguity. . Value- A quantities description that includes both a number and a unit. Units- quantities defined by standards that people have agreed to use to compare one event/object to another. ASTRONOMICAL DATA REDUCTION BAISICS ASTRONOMICAL IMAGING AND DETECTORS THE FIRST DETECTORS: THE HUMAN EYE PHOTOGRAPHIC PLATES • First objective, permanent record of astronomical phenomena & Abell WITHOUT THE COORDINATE PLANE. To find the distance between two points, count the units between them.. There is another way to find the distance, without counting units.. First, we need to know the following things:.

(AU) is defined as the average distance between the Earth and Sun. . . 1 AU = . 92 955 807 miles . or . 149 597 871 km. AU’s are used to measure distances within the solar system. . Some of the tools used to measure length and distance are a metric ruler, a meter stick and a metric tape measure.. Metric Units of Length Measurement.
