To me, Astronomy is the science relative to space. It is the answer to very natural questions: the exploration of time and space. When I go and wonder about what there is above the sky, or what was there at the beginning, astronomy, through its different sections (such as planetary, cosmology etc…) helps me to answer this questions. I’m grateful to live in an age already advanced in this matter. However, there is so much more to explore, and so much more answer to find, and finding these answers is, according to me, what astronomy means.
Now, there are differences between Muggle and Wizarding astronomy. Muggle astronomy will probably never find all the answers, if they don’t account for Magic. For example, Muggle scientists try to find laws …show more content…
It is thought that the South surface is the oldest.
There are many easily recognizable features on Mars, including the Tharsis Bulge, Hellas Basin, Borealis Basin, Valles Marineris.
For long, it was thought there was water on Mars because we could see what looked like canals.
Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are irregular (not spherical)
Jupiter
5th planet from the Sun
Named after the Roman God of Thunder
Jupiter is the biggest planet of the Solar Sytem, and makes up 90% of the mass of it (Sun excluded)
It is a Gas Giant
It is the fourth brightest item in the sky (after Venus)
Its atmosphere is composed mainly of hydrogen and helium.
Stripes can be observed on the surface, they’re strong winds. The dark stripes are the lower pressure zones and the light ones are the higher pressure zones.
There is a big red spot on the surface which is a actually a hurricane, that first started 600 years ago.
Jupiter has many moons, including four Galilean moons (named so because Galileo Galilei observed them in 1610) : Io, Callisto, Europa and Ganymede.
Jupiter, as the other Jovian planets has rings, but fainter than
