The temperature on the Sun's surface is 5800 degrees Kelvin, which though cool by stellar standards is extraordinarily hot by human standards. It is of medium size which allows for a steady, but slow, rate of conversion of matter into energy through nuclear fusion. This energy is what causes the Sun to shine by radiating light, much like electricity enables light bulbs to shine. Eventually, after some 5 billion years when the Sun has converted the hydrogen and helium in its center into energy, it will become a Red Giant its surface temperature will drop, and its size will increase. The sun is an active star. It emits high energy particles (the solar wind) as well as gamma-ray, x-ray, ultraviolet, visible, infrared and radio radiation. The Earth's atmosphere filters out most of this radiation, which is harmful to life, and lets through the visible and infrared light. That's why one should not look directly at the sun a few minutes is enough to "burn" your eyes. Galileo did so while conducting his research and was consequently almost completely blind at the end of his lifetime.

They coordinate, evaluate, and make data available to researchers. There's more information here on variables than most of us knew existed. The Archimedes Institute So what are the legal issues of outer space? The Archimedes Institute wants "to facilitate the development of sensible and efficient legal standards for the high frontier." This site combines a surprisingly large library of law documents, international agreements, legislation, reports, and aerospace resources with a forum for discussing space law and policy. Interesting.

History And Philosophy Of Western Astronomy
The History chapter of an introductory astronomy course.
http://www.astronomynotes.com/history/s1.htm

Extractions: This material (including images) is . See my for fair use practices. Now that you have some feeling for the scales of time and space that astronomy This chapter covers the development of western astronomy and modern science. I focus on the rise of modern science in Europe, from the ancient Greeks to Isaac Newton. Other cultures were also quite interested and skilled in astronomy (the Mayans (link will display in another window), Egyptians, peoples of India and China come immediately to mind), but the Greeks were the first ones to try to explain how the universe worked in a logical, systematic manner using models and observations. Modern astronomy (and all of science) has its roots in the Greek tradition. If you would like a more thorough discussion of the history of astronomy than what I will present here, please take a look at Science and the Human Prospect by Ronald Pine (links will display in another window). I will give dates of when certain persons lived and worked to give you some reference points in the long history of astronomy. Don't worry about memorizing the dates. What is more important is to see the development of ideas and methods of modern science. I include images of world atlases from different time periods in this chapter and the next as another way to illustrate the advances in our understanding of our world and the universe. Links to the sites from which the photographs came are embedded in the images. Select the picture to go to the site. The vocabulary terms are in

Extractions: Adam Schall (汤若望 [湯若望], Tāng Rùowàng, 1591-1666), Imperial Astronomer in Beijing. Designed the current Chinese calendar Astronomers at the Istanbul Observatory Objectives of the Module Topics to be Covered Practical Information and Assessment Course Schedule ... Stellarium Software Astronomy and its History Calendars Observing the Sun and the Moon from Different Parts of the World The Equation of Time ... Bad Astronomy and Pseudoscience Lecture Notes Homework and Tutorials Old Exams Summary ... Helmer Aslaksen's home page The goal of this course is to study astronomy and mathematics in a cultural context. We will look at questions like: How is the date of Chinese New Year determined? Why do the Muslim and Chinese months start on different days? Will the Moon ever look like it does on the Singapore flag? What date of the year is the earliest sunrise in Singapore? How did ancient sailors navigate? After taking this course you will become conscious of the motion of the Sun and the Moon and notice and question things you have earlier taken for granted. You will appreciate mankind's struggle through the ages and throughout the world to understand the mathematics of the heavens. This course is one of the General Education Modules at the NUS.
