The results of present observations of the thermal radio emission of the moon are consistent with the very low thermal conductivity of the surface layer which was derived from the variation in the infrared emission during eclipses ( e.g., Garstung, 1958 ).

He made observations of eclipses and various astronomical objects and published catalogues of carefully determined magnitudes for some 300 stars using his own photometric system ( mean error = 0. 4 mag ).

All values of ΔT before 1955 depend on observations of the Moon, either via eclipses or occultations.

Rømer added his own observations to Cassini's and observed that times between eclipses ( particularly those of Io ) got shorter as Earth approached Jupiter, and longer as Earth moved farther away.

Earlier observations of coronal transients or even phenomena observed visually during solar eclipses are now understood as essentially the same thing.

* Aristotle argues for a spherical Earth using lunar eclipses and other observations.

About the same time, the Pythagoreans thought that the Earth was a sphere ( in accordance with observations of eclipses ), but not at the center ; they believed that it was in motion around an unseen fire.

In astronomy, Conon wrote in seven books his De astrologia, including observations on solar eclipses.

Hipparchus was able to deduce the period during which Timocharis made his observations based upon the records of earlier lunar eclipses.

Earlier observations of coronal transients or even phenomena observed visually during solar eclipses are now understood as essentially the same thing.

Since 1908, he had been charged by the French authorities with astronomic and meteorological observations ( mainly observations of sun eclipses ) and political tasks in various countries all over the world including ( Algeria, Morocco, Turkistan, Russia, India, the USA, Panama, Brazil, Ecuador, Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti, Fiji and Tonga ).

Several searches during eclipses were conducted in the early 1900s, which did not reveal any vulcanoids, and observations during eclipses remain a common search method.

The effect of the finite speed of light on observations of celestial objects was first recognised by Ole Rømer in 1675, during a series of observations of eclipses of the moons of Jupiter.

Coblentz also made observations of solar eclipses, and published papers describing his work.

Further observations which the same team performed in 2001 and 2002 during solar eclipses in Zambia and Australia appear to have yielded much weaker evidence of similar anomalies.

Ibn Yunus's observations on conjunctions and eclipses were used in Richard Dunthorne and Simon Newcombs ' respective calculations of the secular acceleration of the moon.

A series of observations of lunar and solar eclipses and planetary conjunctions, made by him from 853 to 866, was in fact used by Ibn Yunus.

The cycle's begin position, the stellar position and sidereal hour timing the eclipse, are used by later astronomers for calibrating their observations in relation to subsequent eclipses.

The formal displacement of the geocentric principle far from being Copernicus' primary concern, was introduced only to resolve what seemed to him intolerable in orthodox astronomy, namely, the ' unphysical ' triplication of centric reference-points: one center from which the planet's distances were calculated, another around which planetary velocities were computed, and still a third center ( the earth ) from which the observations originated.

Qualitative observations were made and high-speed motion pictures were taken to study flow phenomena in the arc at various mass flow velocities.

In the zoological sciences, some of his observations were confirmed to be accurate only in the 19th century.

The instrument was set up in November 1725, and observations on γ Draconis were made on the 3rd, 5th, 11th, and 12 December.

The observations were continued, and the star was seen to continue its southerly course until March, when it took up a position some 20 ″ more southerly than its December position.

Although observations of some aerodynamic effects such as wind resistance ( e. g. drag ) were recorded by Aristotle, Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo Galilei, very little effort was made to develop a rigorous quantitative theory of air flow prior to the 17th century.

During the 1930s other ideas were proposed as non-standard cosmologies to explain Hubble's observations, including the Milne model, the oscillatory Universe ( originally suggested by Friedmann, but advocated by Albert Einstein and Richard Tolman ) and Fritz Zwicky's tired light hypothesis.

These observations led him to suspect that the flea might be an intermediary factor in the transmission of plague, since people acquired plague only if they were in contact with recently dead rats, who had died less than 24 hours before.

A few observations found in bestiaries, such as the migration of birds, were discounted by the natural philosophers of later centuries, only to be rediscovered in the modern scientific era.

Although neither of the girls claimed to see any fairies, and there were no more photographs, " on the contrary, he saw them everywhere " and wrote voluminous notes on his observations.

A search of historical observations revealed that the spots were probably the most prominent transient features ever seen on the planet, and that while the Great Red Spot is notable for its striking color, no spots of the size and darkness of those caused by the SL9 impacts have ever been recorded before.

These were lists, prepared by collating observations on the actions of substances one upon another, showing the varying degrees of affinity exhibited by analogous bodies for different reagents, and they retained their vogue for the rest of the century, until displaced by the profounder conceptions introduced by Claude Berthollet.

In July 2012, lensing observations were used to identify a " filament " of dark matter between two clusters of galaxies, as cosmological simulations have predicted.

ET, in turn, can now be seen ( in light of modern results ) as close to the average mean solar time between 1750 and 1890 ( centered on 1820 ), because that was the period during which the observations on which Newcomb's tables were based were performed.

They were later verified by observations such as the slight bending of starlight by the Sun during a solar eclipse in 1919, and such considerations are now an integral part of the software that runs the GPS system.
