V. The Cat’s Eye Nebula One of the most famous nebulae is the Cat’s Eye Nebula (NGC-6543); it was discovered by William Herschel in 1786. NGC-6543 is located in the northern constellation of Draco; it appears as a blooming center with surrounding and expanding rings. The NGC-6543 has a historical importance because it was the first nebula to be studied spectroscopically by the astronomer William Huggins in 1864; this study revealed the distinctions between PNe and the other gaseous nebulae.…

distance, they measure the distance of the shift, also considering the diameter of the Erath’s orbit. Then the angle of the parallax is measured. The smaller the angle of the parallax shift is, the farther away the star is from the earth 2) The way that we determine the luminosity of a star is by using a formula L = 4πd^2b. 3) To measure stellar masses we need to measure the properties of the stars in binary systems. 4) In order to measure the radius of the star there are 3 things…

Many Mizzou students are surprised to hear that the campus is home to an observatory. In fact, the observatory has been serving Mizzou students for over 100 years. The observatory is named after university president Samuel Laws, who personally donated $2,000 to help finance the new observatory for the university. The observatory has had multiple locations on campus before reaching its current spot on top of the Physics Building shortly after its 1964 construction. Galileo Galilei is widely…

1st Root Race: Ethereal Beings from outer space were the first Intelligent Life on Earth and comprised both Good and Evil Beings, i.e., we had both Benevolent and Power-Hungry Beings. These Beings were led to Earth by beings that had already evolved on other planets both in our solar system and beyond…Sanat Kumara was one of them. 2nd Root Race: Beings born from the interaction of ethereal beings and primitive humans and therefore Half Ethereal and Half Human. This race is now extinct… 3rd…

Discovery of Uranus William Herschel had a few motivations that led to his discovery of Uranus. However, “[he] spent most nights observing nebulae, looking for double stars, and searching for signs of life on other worlds.” (Ruskin 282) He basically discovered Uranus by accident supposing at first that it was a comet. After sharing his find with other astronomers, they questioned whether it was a comet at all. One astronomer named Nevil Maskelyne “suggested that [it] might be a planet” but it…

why they fall from orbit? Why do the stars appear different colors when seen through a specialized telescope? Curious about the mythology of stars and why people use them for guidance? Throughout history people have used the stars to navigate their way around.…

How do stars form? The stars were born among the dust and scattered throughout the most galaxies. There is an example of dust cloud which is the Orion Nebula.The turbulence in the depths of these clouds produces enough mass of knots.Because its own gravitational attraction,and the gas and dust can begin to collapse. Then the material at the center begin to heat up which is known as protostar . The heart of the collapsing cloud will one day become a star. Since stars are formed from…

Have you ever been in love with someone 22 years older than yourself? Well I am, his name is Lee Grinner Pace. I have many fandoms, or as some people like to say, obsessions, but Lee Pace is my main one. He might be mentioned a lot in this paper. As a Forest Grove transfer student, I have to ‘remind’ everyone/all the new people about my obsessions. There are things I want to do before my bucket gets kicked. For starters, I want to meet Lee Pace. This is because he is my idol and…

The constellation Andromeda is a famous constellation of the 88 modern contstellations. It was first discovered by a 2nd century BC Greco-Roman named Ptolemy. It is named after the Greek Princess Andromeda and is seen mainly in the Northern Hemisphere. The Greek myth of the creation of the Andromeda constellation begins with her Mother Queen Cassiopeia of Ethiopia and her Father, Cepheus, an Aethiopian king declaring to allthe land that their daughter was the most beautful creature on the…
