Download or read book Astro Weather 2009 Pacific Time Edition written by Guy Spiro and published by Lightworks. This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guy Spiro's Original Astro-Weather is a big step up from Sun sign astrology. It represents a new level of astrological information with which to make more informed decisions in daily life. As the Moon and the planets move along their orbits, they form continually shifting patterns, or aspects, that signal the background energy in which we all function, regardless of one's sun sign. Astro-Weather charts this astrological weather for the coming twelve months. When you see the general mood of the mass of people swing one way, then the other, and then sometimes back again, all seemingly without rhyme or reason, this is Astro-Weather. Available in separate versions for all four continental U.S. time zones, Astro-Weather includes precise timing for Moon void of course and planetary retrograde periods, and is an indispensable tool for tens of thousands of readers across the country.

Download or read book Advancing Cultural Astronomy written by Efrosyni Boutsikas and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays on cultural astronomy celebrates the life and work of Clive Ruggles, Emeritus Professor of Archaeoastronomy at Leicester University. Taking their lead from Ruggles’ work, the papers present new research focused on three core themes in cultural astronomy: methodology, case studies, and heritage. Through this framework, they show how the study of cultural astronomy has evolved over time and share new ideas to continue advancing the field. Ruggles’ work in these areas has had a profound impact on the way that scholars approach evidence of the role of sky in both ancient and modern cultures. While the papers span many time periods and regions, they are closely connected by these three major themes, presenting methodological investigations of how we can approach archaeological, textual, and ethnographic evidence; describing detailed archaeoastronomical case studies; or stressing the importance of global heritage management. This work will appeal to researchers and scholars interested in the history and development of cultural astronomy.

Download or read book Astronomy and the Climate Crisis written by Antony Cooke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is acknowledged as being one of the most important areas of research today. Increasing global temperatures will impact all of us to a greater or lesser extent. From the point of view of research it is an enormously important and complex subject. However, little attention is paid to its relationship to astronomy, the sun in particular but not exclusively. Though directed at an astronomically inclined readership, and providing some less well-known astronomically related information, studies and concepts, this book will also appeal to a broader public, who need to understand the subject of climate change and learn of all the various theories and possible solutions.
Download or read book Foundations of Astronomy written by Michael A. Seeds and published by Brooks Cole. This book was released on 2003 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This newly revised and updated seventh edition of FOUNDATIONS OF ASTRONOMY shows students their place in the universe - not just their location, but also their role as planet dwellers in an evolving universe. Fascinating and engaging, the book illustrates how science works, and how scientists depend on evidence to test hypotheses. Students will learn to focus on the scientific method through the strong central theme of "how we know what we know." Through a discussion of this interplay between evidence and hypothesis, Seeds provides not just a series of facts, but also a conceptual framework for understanding the logic of astronomical knowledge. The book vividly conveys the author's love of astronomy, shows students how the universe can be described by a small set of physical laws, and illustrates how they can comprehend their place in the universe by understanding these laws, rather than simply memorizing facts. By crafting a story about astronomy, Seeds shows students how to ask questions of nature and therefore gradually puzzle out the beautiful secrets of the physical world. The book's use of mathematics is incorporated into the body of the text (as well as in separate sections for easy reference), but the arguments of the text do not depend on mathematical reasoning, allowing math-averse students to easily follow the story. The revision covers the history of astronomy, elementary physics concepts, stars and galaxies, the origins of the universe, and the solar system.

Download or read book The Great Canoes in the Sky written by Stephen Robert Chadwick and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting spectacular photographs of astronomical objects of the southern sky, all taken by author Stephen Chadwick, this book explores what peoples of the South Pacific see when they look up at the heavens and what they have done with this knowledge. From wives killing brothers to emus rising out of the desert and great canoes in the sky, this book offers the perfect blend of science, tradition and mythology to bring to life the most famous sights in the heavens above the southern hemisphere. The authors place this starlore in the context of contemporary understandings of astronomy. The night sky of southern societies is as rich in culture as it is in stars. Stories, myths and legends based on constellations, heavenly bodies and other night sky phenomena have played a fundamental role in shaping the culture of pre-modern civilizations throughout the world. Such starlore continues to influence societies throughout the Pacific to this day, with cultures throughout the region – from Australia and New Zealand in the south to New Guinea and Micronesia in the north - using traditional cosmology as a means of interpreting various aspects of everyday life.
