The Celestial Sphere
... First Point of Aries (Υ) The point on the celestial sphere where the ecliptic cuts the equinoctial when the sun just passes the equinoctial from south to north, also known as the vernal equinox position of the sun, which occurs on 21st of March. First Point of Libra The point on the celestial sph ...

... SOFIA can easily study: > IR: objects much cooler than normal stars like the Sun for example: stars and planets in the process of forming; > IR: objects embedded in, or behind, opaque ISM dust clouds; SOFIA’s instruments can see into and through those clouds > IR: organic molecules in space, which h ...

... Moon. He could see objects 20 times smaller than the human eye could using his telescope. A problem with refractors is chromatic aberration (the image has a rainbow around the edges of an object). Using the proper lenses take care of the problem. Another problem is that the size of the lens. It can’ ...

Investigating the Celestial Sphere
... For the purpose of positioning and navigation, the earth is divided, horizontally and vertically into lines of latitude and longitude respectfully. Latitude is given in degrees, either decimal or DMS north or south of the equator. So here in Bury St Edmunds we are around 52° N or 52 degrees above th ...

Celestial Navigation in 60 min
... We found a mathematical relation between what we know (delta, GHA, h) and what we are looking for (latitude, longitude). With 2 observations, we get a system of 2 equations with 2 unknowns that we are able to solve. The celestial navigation problem is thus resolved. What? You don't like my equation ...

... There will be two forces at the base of the arm, one horizontal and one vertical, but we leave those out in our graph above since we are only be asked for the tension and we can apply Newton’s 2nd Law for angular form. When doing so, we get the following equation: m ) cos(40)(12 − 0.52)m s2 We can s ...
