Your Sky, interactive planetarium

Your Sky, interactive planetarium
by John Walker Welcome to Your Sky, the interactive planetarium of the Web. You can produce maps in the forms described below for any time and date, viewpoint, and observing location. If you enter the orbital elements of an asteroid or comet, Your Sky will compute its current position and plot it on the map. Each map is accompanied by an ephemeris for the Sun, Moon, planets, and any tracked asteroid or comet. A control panel permits customisation of which objects are plotted, limiting magnitudes, colour scheme, image size, and other parameters; each control is linked to its description in the help file. Your Sky provides three ways to view the sky with links, where appropriate, among the various presentations. Sky Map The sky map shows the entire sky as viewed from a given location at a specified time and date. Horizon Views Horizon Views, showing the stars above the horizon as seen from a specified observing site at a given date and time. The Virtual Telescope Your Sky help Related Software

C'est pas sorcier : épisodes en Astronomie-Espace Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. L'admissibilité de cette page est à vérifier(mai 2020). Motif : deux sources peu convaincantes au niveau de la notoriété. On dirait que la page est un TI. Et puis, à quoi bon avoir la liste intégrale de ces émissions ? Mars to Get Closer than Ever in Recorded History in 2003 Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. Befitting the red planet's bloody color, the Romans named it after their god of war. The Romans copied the ancient Greeks, who also named the planet after their god of war, Ares. Other civilizations also typically gave the planet names based on its color — for example, the Egyptians named it "Her Desher," meaning "the red one," while ancient Chinese astronomers dubbed it "the fire star."

Eppur si muove! Un modello del Sistema Solare con Scratch Classe: dalla quinta primaria alla seconda della secondaria di primo grado, ma proponibile anche in altre classi modificando obiettivi e approfondimentiObiettivi: come si può realizzare un modello di un fenomeno? Se si utilizza un particolare strumento di modellazione ci saranno limitazioni al modello? Bisognerà sacrificare qualcosa? Jeu de cartes MEMOSKY MEMOSKY a été créé en 2009 par Hervé DERYCKER, astronome, fondateur et directeur du Planétarium Observatoire de Briançon les Écrins de 1997 à 2015 (Hautes Alpes, France). L’auteur précise qu’il lui a fallu plus de 2500 heures d’expérimentations et de développement auprès de plus de 1200 personnes adultes, enfants et personnes ayant des difficultés de mémorisation pour mettre au point ce jeu de cartes qui ravira les adeptes de ciel étoilé et d’astronomie. Le jeu permet de mémoriser les étoiles, les constellations, les objets Messier (amas d’étoiles, nébuleuses, galaxies), mais aussi de localiser l’écliptique (zodiaque) pour l’observation des planètes. La codification des couleurs permet de repérer les étoiles et les constellations en fonction des saisons. Chaque carte est une vraie petite carte du ciel centrée sur une constellation, avec en plus le repérage de certains objets du ciel profond (amas d’étoiles, nébuleuses, galaxies).

We have a growing collection of videos, with related activities, for holidays and events, including: Thanksgiving, slavery & the Civil War, American History, U.S. Table-top Models ...to simulate what the Kepler Mission does. The Kepler Mission Education team has produced table top models demonstrating the principle of how Kepler will find extrasolar planets by the transit method. Components include: Orrery† (model planet system), Light (model star), Light sensor†† (model Kepler photometer), Computer interface (model Deep Space Network), and Computer graphic software (model Kepler Science Office) † The 1st orrery we created was one made of LEGO parts, described on this page.
