Info on Astronomy
Articles on astronomy can be found both online and in print magazines. New photos of space objects result in articles. New space missions result in articles. There is a constant stream of conversation
Something as simple as bumpy space dust generated a great deal of interest and a lot of the recent astronomy articles. Why so much interest? Scientists have long known that hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. But hydrogen has to bond to form the larger molecules observed in the universe. Because of the cold in space, hydrogen needs a little push. Scientists now realize that bumpy molecules may fit that bill. Nobody thinks of dust being bumpy when they vacuum.
One of Saturn's moons is known as the Death Star. With its huge crater, it resembles the famous movie prop. Recent astronomy articles focused on Cassini's mission to this moon, called Mimas. Some stunning images and a lot of new data resulted. It was a popular story. This information will help shed light on the number of impact objects that pass through Saturn's orbit. We'll learn a lot about how planets like Saturn clean debris from the solar system.
For years people have studied dark matter. It contributes to the expansion of the universe, but scientists don't really know how. Dark matter was a popular headline in recent astronomy articles. There was a plan to study distant supernovae to learn about dark matter. It's important because about 70% of the stuff in the universe is dark matter.
Before our sun was really a star it was a condensing mass of space matter called a protosun. Emissions of heat and light as well as solar winds from this proto-sun have long been a matter of contention. Recent astronomy articles answer this question with a resounding yes. Scientists have used new techniques to discover that the protosun did indeed emit ultraviolet and other particles in an early form of the solar wind. So the sun helped create life before it ever became a sun.
The Internet is a great source for learning about articles on astronomy.

Star Wars - Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back
Sale Price: $0.65 |
DescriptionConsidered the most morally and emotionally complex of the original Star Wars trilogy, THE EMPIRE STRIKE BACK continues creator George Lucas's epic saga where STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE left off. The Rebel Forces--which include young adventurer Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), rogue pilot Han Solo (Harrison Ford), and the beautiful but seemingly humorless Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher)--have been successful in destroying the Evil Empire's Death Star. However, the Empire's top commander, the terrifying Lord Darth Vader (played by David Prowse, voiced by James Earl Jones), is scanning the galaxy for the Rebels' secret location. After a visually stunning showdown on the ice planet Hoth, the Rebels are forced to flee, and Luke separates from Han and Leia. Masterful storytelling weaves multiple, archetypal plotlines that pit Vader against Han and Leia as he desperately attempts to capture Luke for political--and, secretly, personal--reasons. Luke, meanwhile, finds himself under the tutelage of the tiny but powerful old Jedi Master Yoda, who teaches him the ways of the Force and warns the impatient but talented student against the threat of the Dark Side. Greek tragedy meets a philosophical hero's journey in EMPIRE, a remarkable sci-fi epic in which the performances are as powerful as the spectacular special effects. In 1997 a special edition of the film was digitally remastered with enhanced visual and sound effects. Several scenes--including the one in which Luke Skywalker encounters a deadly Wampa on Hoth--were reedited with more detail while other scenes--such as the one on Cloud City--were added for the rerelease. |

Eyewitness - Planets [VHS]
List Price: |
Description"My very excellent memory just stores up nine planets." So you and your kids will be saying, both to help you remember the names of our nearest neighbors (you know, Mercury, Venus...) and to show off to your friends that you've seen Eyewitness: Planets. DK's voyage into outer space is full of amazing footage and special effects that intrigue and educate kids and adults about these "wandering stars." Topics include surface conditions, orbits, and planets' history as objects of curiosity and worship throughout the ages. From Galileo to Voyager, you'll find centuries of learning packed into a half an hour that doesn't wear down over repeated viewings. Eyewitness: Planets is a must for the family that learns together. --Rob Lightner The final frontier. Since we first walked the Earth we have gazed in wonder at the night skies and searched for our place in the Universe. Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness Video: Planets takes us from the sun to the outermost limits of our solar system demystifying the nine rocky and gaseous masses we know as planets. The moon landing in 1969 along with five subsequent trips are the only extra-terrestrial landings that man has made, and while the lack of an atmosphere on the moon assures that our footsteps will remain on the surface indefinitely, that does not quell our appetite to know what lies beyond. Actual satellite footage is combined with the series' trademark three-dimensional graphics and the latest in computer animation to take viewers on a journey that begins at 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit -- on the surface of the sun. Using an imaginary space shuttle as our guide, stops are made on each of the nine planets detailing their discovery, composition, atmosphere, orbit, weather conditions, and their ability to support life. From our oldest beliefs (the sky is a blanket filled with pinholes to let the lights of Heaven shine through), no discovery is overlooked as were are toured through the most recent advances: the Hubbell Telescope, the newest moons, and the discovery of a meteorite from the surface of Mars that contained fossils of bacteria. More than any other, we have looked to the red planet for the hope of other life in our solar system. You will learn if life existed there millions of years ago, ever did, or still does. Students will be captivated by the journey and held in awe as to what lies beyond the Earth's atmosphere. Astronomy is one of the world's oldest sciences, and this exciting addition to the Eyewitness Video series is sure to inspire the next Copernicus or Galileo currently in our classrooms. |

Celestron 21041 60mm PowerSeeker Telescope
List Price: |
DescriptionCelestron's value priced Powerseeker 60 telescope takes a basic "just the facts" approach to affordable entry level telescopes. The package includes an adjustable aluminum tripod with an alt-azimuth mount and stabilizer, a Kellner type K20 eyepiece, a Ramsden type SR4 eyepiece, a 3x barlow lens, and a 5 power cross-hair finder scope. The Powerseeker 60 comes disassembled in a compact box, but it won't take long to put everything together. Go ahead and try it out in the daytime, that's the best time to align the finder scope while looking at a distant tree or telephone pole. My first view of Saturn's rings and star cluster M13 in Hercules came with a 60mm telescope, and I enjoy celestial viewing with the Powerseeker 60 to this day. The secret is to use the low power K20 eyepiece and only extend the tripod legs half-way. This gives me sharp and steady views, whether I'm looking at nearby hills, craters on the Moon, the Double Cluster in Perseus, or even the Andromeda Galaxy! With a 1.25" focuser and diagonal mirror, it's easy to add better eyepieces. The Kellner type K20 eyepiece yields a 1.1 degree true field of view, better than the Huygens or H-type eyepieces still found in many beginner scopes. Adding an optional Celestron 25mm E-Lux eyepiece is better still. With nearly 2 degrees true field of view, the 25mm E-lux makes it much easier to find objects, either on land or in deep space. The SR4 eyepiece is less impressive; it's like peeking through a pin-hole. Adding the 3x barlow to the SR4 to get that 525x proclaimed on the box is peeking through a dim, fuzzy pin-hole. I'm surprised that a telescope this inexpensive can be this good. It's good enough to show me Saturn's rings at night or a Steller's Jay at 100 yards during the day. In my opinion, the Powerseeker 60 would be an even better bargain if it came with a K10 eyepiece in place of the 3x barlow and the SR4 eyepiece. Also take a look at Celestron's Firstscope 60AZ; it's only a little more expensive, but it includes two useable eyepieces, a red-dot finder, and planetarium software for your computer. Jeff Phillips Pros: Low cost Decent optics Accepts 1.25" eyepieces Cons: Too small for serious astronomy Only one good eyepiece Offering exceptional value, these telescopes feature portable yet powerful designs with ample optical performance to excite any newcomer to the world of amateur astronomy.
