Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eclipses of the Moon in India The' name given to the month in question by the Hindus necessarily varies with their diversity of practice (prior to about 1100 ad.) in the interpolation of a month in intercalary years, some using the true and some the mean system; and this difference of name is shewn by a double entry in C01. 2. In such case the earlier entry refers throughout to the true system, the later to the mean system, and to this is prefixed the letters w. M. I. I.e. With mean intercalations. When the month in which the eclipse occurs bears the' name -of an intercalated month, so that there are in that year two months having the same name, I have distinguished them by numbers, at the suggestion of Professor Kielhorn. Such a system is safer than entering a name; in view of the difference in the nomenclature adopted at different times and in different tracts. For the magnitude of the eclipse (col. 8)i adopt the Canon figures, with the sole exception that I have not thought it necessary to record magnitudes higher than total. For these last, the letter t suffices. A note on the page of Table E. Containing the entry for ad. 1582 explains fully the Old and New Style of ad. Reckoning, and shews why, between AD 1582 and 1752.

Download or read book Sun Moon Earth written by Tyler Nordgren and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With beautiful illustrations and a detailed map, Sun Moon Earth has everything you need to get ready for the next solar eclipse. On April 8, 2024, millions of Americans will experience an awe-inspiring phenomenon: a total eclipse of the sun. In Sun Moon Earth, astronomer Tyler Nordgren illustrates how this most seemingly unnatural of natural phenomena was transformed from a fearsome omen to a tourist attraction. From the astrologers of ancient China and Babylon to the high priests of the Maya, Sun Moon Earth takes us around the world to show how different cultures interpreted these dramatic events. Greek philosophers discovered eclipses' cause and used them to measure their world and the cosmos beyond. Victorian-era scientists mounted eclipse expeditions during the age of globe-spanning empires. And modern-day physicists continue to use eclipses to confirm Einstein's theory of relativity. Beautifully illustrated and lyrically written, Sun Moon Earth is the ideal guide for all eclipse watchers and star gazers alike.
