Throughout history, the mysterious dark skies above us have inspired our imaginations in countless ways, influencing our endeavours in science and philosophy, religion, literature and art. Picturing the Sky is a truly beautiful book showing the richness of astronomical theories and illustrations in Western civilization through the ages, exploring their evolution, and comparing ancient and modern throughout. From Greek verse, mediaeval manuscripts and Victorian poetry to spacecraft photographs and computer-generated star charts, the unprecedented wealth of these portrayals is quite breathtaking. How did philosophers and scientists try to explain the order which seems to govern celestial motion? How did geometers and artists measure and map the skies? How many different answers have been proposed for the most fundamental of all questions: When and how did our world come about? Who inhabits the Heavens - gods, angels or extraterrestrials? The anwers to these questions can be found among these stunning pages.

Description An account of the resource 1642, een eeuw Copernicanisme: ook voor de Zuid Nederlander? (Steve Philips) home lijst scripties inhoud vorige ... volgende 4.1 Van Aristoteles tot Galileï. Het Copernicanisme is een onderdeel van de grote Wetenschappelijke Revolutie, die in de tweede helft van de zestiende eeuw begon. Deze verandering in de gedachten schudde in de loop der tijden definitief het oude aristotelische-ptolemeïsch of geocentrisch wereldbeeld door elkaar. Aristoteles (384 – 322 v. Chr.) ging ervan uit dat de aarde het centrum van het heelal vormde. Volgens hem waren er ook vier oerelementen: aarde, water, lucht en vuur. In hun zuiverste toestand werden ze de vier aardse sferen genoemd. Deze bevonden zich in het ondermaanse. Buiten het ondermaanse trof men een ring van zeven bolvormige lagen uit ether (de vijfde materie) aan. Elk van deze lagen of sferen bevatte een planeet. De toen gekende planeten waren: Zon, Maan, Mercurius, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturnus. Daaromheen was het firmament, een achtste sfeer met de vaste sterren erop gemonteerd. De buitenste bewegende sfeer, die alle andere sferen in beweging zette, werd aangeduid als het Primum Mobile. Daarachter bevond zich het verblijf van God, in aristotelische termen als de Onbewogen Beweger aangeduid. . Alles wat zich buiten het ondermaanse bevond, was ook niet aan verandering onderhevig en volmaakter dan de aardse ‘zaken’. Daarom werd een komeet in het aristotelisch denken als iets ondermaans beschouwd.

Verklaringen worden onder meer gezocht in het buitengewone, zeg maar het buitenaardse. Astrologie en ufologie vieren hoogtij. Mensen reageren immers emotioneel, zijn vaak goedgelovig en soms niet erg rationeel. Dit boek wil daarom een antwoord zijn van een aantal universitaire onderzoekers uit verschillende disciplines. Zij schrijven over hun specialisme, waarbij de normale en paranormale theorien over het bouwen van de piramides langs de Nijl en over de Egyptische beschaving, als rode draad fungeren. De bedoeling van de auteurs met dit boek is dat een leek met een kritische geest, een wetenschappelijk gefundeerde kijk krijgt op deze materie.

However, first he provides the necessary astronomical background in his descriptive account of what you can see when you look at the <a>More...</a> <div class="copyToToggle"> sky with the naked eye, unblinkered by received knowledge, but with curiosity and wit. Chapter 1 deals with the arithmetical astronomy of ancient Mesopotamia where astronomy first was made an exact science. Next are treated Greek geometrical models for planetary motion, culminating in Ptolemy's equant models in his Almagest. Ptolemy does not assign them absolute size in this work, but, as is shown here, if we scale the models properly, they will yield good values, not only of the directions to the planets, but of the distances to them, as well. Thus one can immediately find the dimensions of the Copernican System from parameters in the Almagest - we have evidence that Copernicus did just that. Further, Islamic astronomers' modifications of Ptolemy's models by devices using only uniform circular motion are discussed, as are Copernicus's adoption of some of them. finally, it is made precise which bothersome problem was resolved by the heliocentric hypothesis, as it was by the Tychonic arrangement. Next, the Ptolemaic System, the first cosmological scheme to incorporate quantitative models, is described as Ptolemy himself did it in a recenlty recovered passage from his Planetary Hypotheses. Here he does assign absolute size to his models in order to fit them into the snugly nested spherical shells that made up his universe. This much maligned system was, in fact, a harmonious construct that remained the basis for how educated people thought of their world for a millennium and a half. Finally, after a brief review of the geometry of the ellipse, the author gives an elementary derivation of Kepler's equation, and shows how Kepler solved it, and further proves that a planet moves very nearly uniformly around the empty focus of its orbit. Thus an eccentric circular orbit with the empty focus as the equant point gives a good approximation to Kepler motions. The result of combining two such motions is then shown to be close to Ptolemy's planetary model</div> Language A language of the resource nothing Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Paperback https://bib.cozmix.cloud/files/original/02e88c513dfbfcec506aafd9d55b7a8e.jpg ec39206b21edb996be360e4a061cb3c8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context GES0520 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ferguson Kitty Title A name given to the resource Tycho and Kepler Description An account of the resource On his deathbed in 1601, the greatest naked-eye astronomer, Tycho Brahe, told his young colleague, Johannes Kepler, “Let me not have lived in vain.” For more than thirty years, Tycho had made meticulous observations of planetary movements and the positions of the stars, from which he developed his Tychonic system of the universe—a highly original, if incorrect, scheme that attempted to reconcile the ancient belief in an unmoving Earth with Copernicus’s revolutionary re-arrangement of the solar system. Tycho knew that Kepler, the brilliant young mathematician he had engaged to interpret his findings, believed in Copernicus’s formation, in which all the planets circled the Sun; and he was afraid his system—the product of a lifetime of effort to explain how the universe worked—would be abandoned. <table class="MsoNormalTable" style="width:94.8pt;"><tbody><tr><td style="background-color:transparent;width:100%;border:#f0f0f0;padding:7.2pt;"> </td> </tr></tbody></table> In point of fact, it was. From his study of Tycho’s observations came Kepler’s stunning Three Laws of Planetary Motion—ever since the cornerstone of cosmology and our understanding of the heavens. Yet, as Kitty Ferguson reveals, neither of these giant figures would have his reputation today without the other; and the story of how their lives and talents were fatefully intertwined is one of the most memorable sagas in the long history of science. Set in a turbulent and colorful era in European history, at the turning point when medieval gave way to modern, Tycho & Kepler is both a highly original dual biography and a masterful recreation of how science advances. From Tycho’s fabulous Uraniborg Observatory on an island off the Danish coast, to the court of the Holy Roman Emperor, Rudolph II, to the religious conflict of the Thirty Years’ War that rocked all of Europe, to Kepler’s extraordinary leaps of understanding, Ferguson recounts a fascinating interplay of science and religion, politics and personality. Her insights recolor the established personalities of Tycho and Kepler, and her book opens a rich window onto our place in the universe.

Galileo's Daughter also presents a stunning portrait of a person hitherto lost to history, described by her father as "a woman of exquisite mind, singular goodness, and most tenderly attached to me." The son of a musician, Galileo Gahlei (1564-1642) tried at first to enter a monastery before engaging the skills that made him the foremost scientist of his day. Though he never left Italy, his inventions and discoveries were heralded around the world. Most sensationally, his telescopes allowed him to reveal a new reality in the heavens and to reinforce the astounding argument that the Earth moves around the Sun. For this belief, he was brought before the Holy Office of the Inquisition, accused of heresy, and forced to spend his last years under house arrest. Of Galileo's three illegitimate children, the eldest best mirrored his own brilliance, industry, and sensibility, and by virtue of these qualities became his confidante. Born Virginia in 1600, she was thirteen when Galileo placed her in a convent near him in Florence, where she took the most appropriate name of Suor Maria Celeste. Her loving support, which Galileo repaid in kind, proved to be her father's greatest source of strength throughout his most productive and tumultuous years. Her presence, through letters which Sobel has translated from their original Italian and masterfully woven into the narrative, graces her father's life now as it did then. Galileo's Daughter dramatically recolors the personality and accomplishment of a mythic figure whose seventeenth-century clash with Catholic doctrine continues to define the schism between science and religion. Moving between Galileo's grand public life and Maria Celeste's sequestered world, Sobel illuminates the Florence of the Medicis and the papal court in Rome during the pivotal era when humanity's perception of its place in the cosmos was being overturned. In that same time, while the bubonic plague wreaked its terrible devastation and the Thirty Years' War tipped fortunes across Europe, one man sought to reconcile the Heaven he revered as a good Catholic with the heavens he revealed through his telescope. With all the human drama and scientific adventure that distinguished Longitude, Galileo's Daughter is an unforgettable story.
