AstroWeb: Astronomy/Astrophysics on the Internet Welcome to AstroWeb - a collection of pointers to astronomy-related information available on the Internet. The database is maintained by the AstroWeb Consortium , a collaboration involving 9 individuals at 7 institutions. In addition to classified lists of resource records, the Consortium also provides a utility to search the AstroWeb database: (WAIS search help) Most of the URLs in the database are tested three times a day to verify aliveness (see "AstroWeb Dead URLs" and "AstroWeb Unreliable URLs" ). The Consortium will be pleased to accept contributions of new resource records. You can use HTML forms to submit an addition or change to the Astroweb database review pending submissions review Astroweb records changed in the past month or send EMail to the Consortium This NRAO version of AstroWeb is recomputed at about 09:10 UTC each day, if the master database has been changed. Neither the individuals involved in the AstroWeb Consortium, nor their affiliated institutions, accept any responsibility for the contents or availability of information located at other Internet sites. 1/27/2003 2:57:25 PM The AstroWeb master database currently contains 3084 distinct resource records: Category Records Observing resources Telescopes Astronomical survey projects Telescope observing schedules Metereological information Data Resources Data and Archive Centers Astronomy Information Systems Publication-related Resources Abstracts of Astronomical Publications Full-texts of Astronomical Publications Astronomical Bibliographical Services Astronomy-related Libraries ...

History and Philosophy of Western Astronomy Chapter index in this window Chapter index in separate window 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

It is concerned with the evolution, physics chemistry meteorology , and motion of celestial objects, as well as the formation and development of the universe Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Astronomers of early civilizations performed methodical observations of the night sky, and astronomical artifacts have been found from much earlier periods. However, the invention of the telescope was required before astronomy was able to develop into a modern science. Historically, astronomy has included disciplines as diverse as astrometry, celestial navigation, observational astronomy, the making of calendars, and even astrology , but professional astronomy is nowadays often considered to be synonymous with astrophysics . Since the 20th century, the field of professional astronomy split into

Helmer Aslaksen's home page Objectives of the Module 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.
