#GalileoGalilei గెలీలియో గెలీల ఇటలీకు చెందిన భౌతిక శాస్త్రవేత్త, గణితజ్ఞుడు, భౌగోళిక శాస్త్రజ్ఞుడు మరియు తత్వవేత్త. టెలీస్కోపు (దూరదర్శిని) ను వాడుకలోకి తెచ్చాడు.గెలీలియో ఇటలీలోని పీసా నగరంలో జన్మించాడు. చిన్న వయసులో తండ్రి వద్దనే విద్యాభ్యాసం చేశాడు.

తరువాత పీసా విశ్వవిద్యాలయంలో వైద్య విద్యార్థిగా చేరాడు. అయితే అక్కడి గణితశాస్త్ర ఉపన్యాసాలకు ప్రభావితుడై వైద్యవిద్యను విడిచి, గణిత శాస్త్రాన్ని అధ్యయనం చేశాడు. ఆ తరువాత అక్కడే గణితశాస్త్రంలో ఉపన్యాసకులుగా చేరాడు.

గెలీలియో కాలం అనగా 16 వ శతాబ్దం వరకు క్రీ..పూ. 4వ శతాబ్దంలో గ్రీకు తత్వవేత్త అరిస్టాటిల్ ప్రతిపాదించిన సిద్ధాంతాలే ప్ర్రాచుర్యంలో ఉండేవి. సృష్టిలోని సత్యాలనన్నిటినీ స్వచ్ఛమైన ఆలోచనల ద్వారా మాత్రమే వివరించవచ్చును.

#Update #Space #Telescope #Debris #Asia

A new telescope facility in the Himalayan range will now keep a watch on the overhead sky to identify transient or variable objects such as #supernovae, #gravitational lenses, #space #debris, and #asteroids. 1/n
Commissioned at Devasthal in Uttarakhand, it'll help survey the sky making it possible to observe #galaxies & other astronomical sources just by staring at the strip of sky that passes overhead. It's the first liquid mirror telescope in India & the largest in Asia. 2/n
Built by astronomers from India, Belgium and Canada, the novel instrument employs a 4m diameter rotating mirror made up of a thin film of liquid mercury to collect and focus light. It’s at an altitude of 2,450m at @ARIESNainital Devasthal observatory campus. 3/n

0/16 Just like the real #NASA Webb Telescope, I’m so big that I have to fold up to fit in my #rocket for launch and then unfold in #space. Follow this thread to see each step of my deployment throughout the coming days. bit.ly/LEGOJWST Image
1/16 Not long after I launch 🚀 into space, I need to deploy my solar array to keep the power flowing. My solar array folds flat, just like the real thing! bit.ly/LEGOJWST #solarpower
2/16 📡 Next I release my medium- and high-gain antennae so that I can #communicate better and send data to you. My antennae are gimbaled, allowing me to aim them directly at #Earth! 🌍 bit.ly/LEGOJWST

This is probably the most humbling & awe-inspiring image of the #Universe I know.

It's an infrared image by the #Spitzer #Space #telescope, as wide as the full moon.

The dots aren't stars.
They're galaxies.
Each dot is 100s of Billions of stars.(1/n)

@Todd_Scheve #astronomy Image
The image is part of the S-CANDELS programme, which observed parts of the sky very deeply (50 hours each pointing) with the Spitzer IRAC camera.

The goal was to obtain very sensitive infrared data for very distant #galaxies. See for details:

These data are crucial to understand galaxies in the young Universe.

The faintest dots you can see are galaxies the light of which took over 13 Billion yrs to reach us. A snapshot of the Universe when it was less than a Billion years old. (3/n)

¿Queréis construiros un potente telescopio casero? 💪
He estado restaurando un viejo proyecto ahora que toca quedarse en casa. Abro hilo con todos los detalles 👇
#DIY #Telescope #Dobson #AstronomiaDesdeCasa
Todo empezó con este espejo, 200mm de diámetro a F/6, exactamente 118,3cm de foco. Perfecto para construir un telescopio tipo Newton. Podéis encontrarlos en Internet a muy buen precio.
¿Y cómo es un telescopio tipo Newton? Pues este gráfico lo muestra claramente, es uno de los diseños más antiguos de telescopio reflector ideado por Sir Isaac Newton:
