Constellations are recognizable patterns of stars in the sky that have been used for navigation and keeping track of time. Different cultures sometimes see different shapes within the same constellations. For example, Greeks saw the constellation Orion as a hunter but Japanese saw it as a drum. Constellations tell stories and help organize the night sky while also being meaningful parts of human culture.

The document discusses the Juno mission to study Jupiter. The Juno mission launched in 2011 and is currently in orbit around Jupiter to learn how the planet formed and evolved. Previous missions have also explored Jupiter, including the Pioneer and Voyager flybys in the 1970s and Galileo orbiter in the 1990s. The Juno mission is unmanned and uses solar power to operate far from the sun, making it the first spacecraft to do so.
Australia
Australia is located on the Indo-Australian tectonic plate. While legends of a southern land date back to the 2nd century, Australia took its current form when it broke away from the supercontinent Gondwana around 60 million years ago. The continent features vast deserts home to diverse plants and animals adapted to arid conditions.
First Nations Star Stories
The document provides an introduction to Ininewuk (Cree) perspectives on astronomy and constellations. It discusses several Ininewuk stories associated with constellations visible in the northern skies, including Ochekatchakosuk (Big Dipper), which explains how summer came to be, Atima Atchakosuk (Little Dipper), about how dogs came to humans, and Mista Muskwa (Big Bear), about how bullies are dealt with. It aims to share these ancestral worldviews with First Nations students.
Constellations
A constellation is a group of stars that form an image in the sky. There are 88 officially recognized constellations in the world that were named by ancient Greeks and Babylonians over 6,000 years ago based on stories and figures. The document discusses facts about constellations like their movement and stories, the history of how they were established over centuries, and provides case studies of specific constellations like Draco the dragon, Grus the flamingo, Leo the lion, Ursa Major the big dipper, Indus, and Hydra the sea serpent.
History of the constellations
There are 88 named constellations that are groupings of stars in the sky. Most constellations were named by the ancient Greeks and represent mythological figures or animals. The document references several other sources that provide pictures and information about specific constellations like Orion, Musca, and the zodiac constellations.
Theories of the universe 3
The document discusses theories about constellations from ancient Greece to modern times. It describes how the earliest constellations were identified by Homer around 6000 years ago and most were associated with myths by the 5th century BC. The modern boundaries of 88 official constellations were established by the IAU in 1922 and 1928. Modern constellations like Columba the dove and Monoceros the unicorn are more difficult to identify than classical ones because they contain fewer bright stars and are located in less prominent areas of the sky. Learning the classical constellations helps in finding the modern ones.
Astronomical event before the advent of telescope
- Ancient Babylonian and Egyptian civilizations systematically observed and recorded the motions of the sun, moon, and planets without telescopes. They noted the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and its rising and setting points varied over the course of a year.
- They observed the moon's changing appearance over 29.5 days in its phases from a thin crescent to a full circular disk. Lunar eclipses where the Earth casts its shadow on the moon were also noticed.
- Constellations were patterns of visible stars that helped with navigation, timekeeping of calendars, and recognizing stars. Five planets - Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn - could be seen without telescopes

CONSTELLATIONS.pptx
Polaris, also known as the North Star, is located in the constellation Ursa Minor and helps navigators determine their northern location. It appears nearly motionless while other stars appear to rotate around it. Ancient cultures used constellations to tell stories and track the seasons, informing practices like agriculture. Today, astronomers use constellations to identify and locate stars through their positions within constellations and assigned Greek letter names. Constellations along the ecliptic path of the sun comprise the 13 signs of the zodiac, though astrological signs differ from the actual constellations they represent.
History & Culture of Astronomy April 10, 2009 acloutier copyright
1) Many ancient cultures developed sophisticated astronomy traditions and systems for tracking celestial events, including African, Chinese, Australian Aboriginal, Mayan, Greek, Inuit, and European cultures dating back as far as 2,000 BC.
2) These traditions incorporated astronomy into cultural storytelling, calendars, rituals, and timekeeping and were used to make sense of the cosmos and understand celestial phenomena.
3) Key figures like Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler advanced scientific astronomy in Europe starting in the 15th century by developing heliocentric models and improving observational tools and methods.
physical science senior high school Q2 WEEK 1.pptx
1) Ancient civilizations believed the Earth was flat until the Greeks proposed it was spherical based on observations of lunar eclipses and the circular shadows cast on the Moon.
2) Early models of the universe placed Earth at the center, with Copernicus and others later advocating heliocentric models with the Sun at the center.
3) Galileo's observations with early telescopes, such as the moons of Jupiter and sunspots, provided evidence supporting heliocentric models and advancing astronomical understanding.
South Broulee Analysis
The document discusses the Hubble Space Telescope, noting that it orbits Earth in space which allows it to observe space without interference from the atmosphere and provide clearer images. It explains how Hubble has helped scientists determine the age of the universe and discover dark energy by providing pictures of exploding stars and distant galaxies. Placing telescopes in space provides advantages over land-based telescopes like the ability to observe continuously without day and night cycles and collect energy from more of the electromagnetic spectrum.

- Duties involve studying celestial objects through telescopes, analyzing dataThe turtle and elephant ; the flat earth myth .
The document discusses the myth of the World Turtle and how it has been interpreted by scholars as referring to beliefs about a flat Earth. However, the author argues that many ancient myths were actually describing cosmological events and features of the Milky Way galaxy, not the Earth. The Turtle myth symbolized the bulge at the center of the Milky Way. When European scholars interpreted the myths literally as stories about Earth, they misunderstood the original symbolic and cosmological meaning. The author analyzes myths from various cultures and finds similarities between them that reflect cosmological truths about the formation of the galaxy and solar system.
History Of Astronomy Andie
The document discusses the history of astronomy from ancient Greek astronomers to Isaac Newton. It describes how Ptolemy first proposed the geocentric model which was believed for over 1500 years. Copernicus later proposed the heliocentric model which placed the Sun at the center. Kepler took Tycho Brahe's data and developed his laws of planetary motion, showing their orbits were elliptical not circular. Galileo made important astronomical observations with his telescope that supported the heliocentric model, such as the phases of Venus and moons orbiting Jupiter. Finally, Newton explained gravity and inertia as what kept the planets in orbit around the Sun.

Precambrian Boundary Essay
The document discusses the Precambrian-Cambrian boundary, which remains controversial despite ongoing research. Radioactive dating and other stratigraphic methods have advanced our understanding of early Cambrian evolution. Laminated stromatolites from the Precambrian provide fossil evidence, while biosedimentary structures indicate the boundary location. Determining an accurate timeframe for the boundary is difficult as evidence suggests a transition period of 30-50 million years between Ediacaran fauna (620-700 million years ago) and the appearance of trilobites.

Mayan Achievements Essay
The Mayan civilization flourished from around 300 BCE to 900 CE, known as the Classic Period. During this time, the Mayans made remarkable achievements in mathematics, astronomy, calendars, and architecture. They invented the first writing system in the Americas and had an understanding of concepts like zero. While the Mayans declined after 900 CE, recent research has uncovered three main factors that likely contributed to their collapse: deforestation and climate change, overpopulation, and internal and external conflicts between Mayan city-states.

The document discusses several constellations including Hercules, Gemini, and Canis Major. It provides details on the mythology and history behind their names, notable stars within each constellation, and their locations in the night sky. Key information includes that Hercules represents the Greek hero and contains the star Alpha Her, Gemini means "twins" and contains Castor and Pollux, and Canis Major means "great dog" and is home to Sirius, the brightest star.
Ancient history week 2a
The Sumerians built ziggurats to reach heaven but God did not approve of their pride, so he confused their language and dispersed the people. This led to over 5,000 languages developing today and genetic differences between races. Another ancient structure is Stonehenge, a stone circle in England built over 4,000 years ago that was used to track the sun and moon, though it is a mystery how the large stones were transported. Early Egypt was divided between Upper and Lower Egypt, with different cultures in each region that worshipped distinct gods.
Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
