Eugène Joseph Delporte
Eugène Joseph Delporte (10 January 1882 – 19 October 1955) was a Belgian astronomer born in Genappe.
He discovered a total of sixty-six asteroids. Notable discoveries include 1221 Amor (which lent its name to the Amor asteroids) and the Apollo asteroid 2101 Adonis. He discovered or co-discovered some comets as well, including periodic comet 57P/du Toit-Neujmin-Delporte. He worked in the Observatoire Royal de Belgique (Belgian Royal Observatory), situated in the town of Uccle (after which the asteroid 1276 Ucclia is named). He started there in 1903 after receiving his doctorate that year from the Free University of Brussels.
In 1930 he drew the modern boundaries between all of the constellations in the sky, along lines of right ascension and declination for the epoch B1875.0.
The crater Delporte on the Moon is named after him.

88 modern constellations - WikiVidi Documentary
In modern astronomy, the sky is divided into 88 regions called constellations, generally based on the asterisms of Greek and Roman mythology. Those along the ecliptic are the constellations of the zodiac. The ancient Sumerians, and later the Greeks , established most of the northern constellations in international use today. When explorers mapped the stars of the southern skies, European and American astronomers proposed new constellations for that region, as well as ones to fill gaps between the traditional constellations. Not all of these proposals caught on,, but in 1922, the International Astronomical Union adopted the modern list of 88 constellations. After this, Eugène Joseph Delporte drew up precise boundaries for each constellation, so that every point in the sky belonged to e...

Constelallations, Brave et Beau
Constelallations, Brave et Beau. Una constelación, en astronomía, es una agrupación convencional de estrellas, cuya posición en el cielo nocturno es aparentemente aproximada. Pueblos, generalmente de civilizaciones antiguas, decidieron vincularlas mediante trazos imaginarios, creando así siluetas virtuales sobre la esfera celeste. En la inmensidad del espacio, en cambio, las estrellas de una constelación no necesariamente están localmente asociadas; y pueden encontrarse a cientos de años luz unas de otras. Además, dichos grupos son completamente arbitrarios, ya que distintas culturas han ideado constelaciones diferentes, incluso vinculando las mismas estrellas. Algunas constelaciones fueron ideadas hace muchos siglos por los pueblos que habitaban las regiones del Medio Oriente y el Medite...

"The History of Astronomical Constellations" -- Bob Starcher
The invited speaker at the July 20, 2021 meeting of the Old Guard of Summit NJ was Bob Starcher, a teacher at the New Jersey Astronomical Association, who made a presentation on the history of the constellations and what they tell us about the earth’s orbit... There were a few misstatements in the presentation, the correct statements and their associated timestamps are as follows: 07:03 The Scorpion asterism "spilled over into two constellations: Libra and Scorpius ." 45:20 Flamsteed's Numbers for star designations increase "toward the East ." 52:05 Canis Major was off to the lower left of the picture, "that is to the East ." 52:26 Sirius "in Canis Major" is about 8 light years away. 1:03:03 Citing a recent radio commercial for the International Star Registry, they cla...

Amor i Eros w kosmosie - Niebo na dłoni #2
Amor i Eros to imiona bogów z mitologii rzymskiej i greckiej kojarzonych z miłością. Ale to także nazwy planetoid w Układzie Słonecznym. Co wiemy o tych ciałach? Odcinek był pierwotnie opublikowany w Walentynki 2017 roku. Seria "Niebo na dłoni" to cykl filmów z podstawowymi informacjami o różnych obiektach astronomicznych. Odcinki były publikowane w latach 2017-2018 i dostępne na osobnym kanale (ponad 1200 subskrybentów). Niestety wiosną 2021 r. kanał nagle zniknął z YouTube. Pracownicy YouTube nie potrafią wyjaśnić dlaczego tak się stało, ani odtworzyć kanału i filmów. Aby materiały te nadal były dostępne dla wszystkich, będziemy je sukcesywnie zamieszczać w ramach Urania TV. #Amor #Eros #Walentynki

Historia de las Constelaciones - Las 88 Constelaciones
Historia de las constelaciones. Hace miles de años, los primeros hombres y mujeres, al observar el cielo nocturno, crearon patrones o líneas imaginarias que unían estrellas, formando figuras que asociaban con animales, seres mitológicos, dioses y objetos de su cotidianidad. Estas agrupaciones o enlaces imaginarios de estrellas, los conocemos hoy como constelaciones y eran de gran utilidad en la antigüedad para fines prácticos, como la orientación, la navegación, la medición del tiempo y predicción del cambio de las estaciones o simplemente como forma de expresión de sus mitos y leyendas. Muchas de las constelaciones que conocemos en la actualidad tienen su origen en las antiguas civilizaciones de Mesopotamia, en la media luna fértil entre los ríos Tigris y el Éufrates, como los sumerio...

Se acostumbra a separar las constelaciones en dos grupos, dependiendo el hemisferio celeste dónde se encuentren:
constelaciones septentrionales, las ubicadas al norte del ecuador celeste
constelaciones australes, al sur.
A partir de 1928, la Unión Astronómica Internacional (UAI) decidió reagrupar oficialmente la esfera celeste en 88 constelaciones con límites precisos, tal que todo punto en el cielo quedara dentro de los límites de una figura. Antes de dicho año, eran reconocidas otras constelaciones menores que luego cayeron en el olvido; muchas, ya no se recuerdan. El trabajo de delimitación definitiva de las constelaciones fue llevado a cabo fundamentalmente por el astrónomo belga Eugène Joseph Delporte y publicado por la UAI.

A constellation , in astronomy , is a conventional cluster of stars , whose position in the night sky is apparently approximate. Peoples usually ancient civilizations, decided to link them by imaginary lines , creating virtual silhouettes on the celestial sphere . In the vastness of space , however , the stars of a constellation are not necessarily associated locally , and can be found at hundreds of light years from each other . Moreover, these groups are completely arbitrary , since different cultures have developed different constellations , including by linking the same stars .
Some constellations were devised centuries ago by the people who inhabited the regions of Middle East and Mediterranean . Others, which are further south, received its name from the Europeans in recent times to explore these places hitherto unknown to them, but the people who inhabited the southern regions had their own constellations named according to their beliefs.
It is customary to divide constellations into two groups, depending on where they are celestial hemisphere :
northern constellations , located north of the celestial Ecuador
southern constellations , to the south.
Since 1928 , the International Astronomical Union (IAU ) officially decided to regroup the celestial sphere in 88 constellations with precise boundaries , such that every point in the sky to stay within the limits of a figure. Before that year , were recognized under other constellations which then fell into oblivion , many no longer remember . The final delimitation work of the constellations was conducted primarily by the Belgian astronomer Eugène Joseph Delporte and published by the IAU .

1:08:25 The name for the measurable movement of nearby stars relative to the more distant background stars is "proper motion."
1:12:19 & 1:12:36 IAU's new (2006) class of minor planets that: (1) have sufficient mass to draw themselves into a sphere; (2) have cleared their orbit of planetesimals (i.e. the small accumulations of solid matter that is left over from the protoplanetary disk, from which the planets coalesced); and are not the satellites of other planets, are called "dwarf planets." The term "minor planets," is the name for the larger category that includes "dwarf planets" and "small solar system bodies" (which are similar to dwarf planets, but not spherical), and excludes comets and the natural satellites (I.e. "moons") of other bodies.

Music Majors in the woodwind and brass instrument studios will present a recital of solo works on Sunday, November 15, at 3pm. The woodwind students study clarinet with Dr. Mark Gallagher, saxophone with Dr. Brent Weber, and flute with Dr. Eftihia Arkoudis. The brass students study trumpet with Jacob Dalager, horn with Avery Pettigrew, and euphonium with Anthony Walker.
Because of the coronavirus pandemic, musical performances before live audiences will not be held until conditions warrant. However, the Department of Music is planning a series of online presentations. For more information, contact FSU’s Department of Music at 301-687-4109.
***NOTE - Recordings were made in two ways depending on when they took place: 1) Some recordings were made in Pealer recital hall, leaving at least 30 minutes between recordings. 2) Some recordings took place after FSU went online, and required the performers to submit their own videos.***

Seria "Niebo na dłoni" to cykl filmów z podstawowymi informacjami o różnych obiektach astronomicznych. Odcinki były publikowane w latach 2017-2018 i dostępne na osobnym kanale (ponad 1200 subskrybentów). Niestety wiosną 2021 r. kanał nagle zniknął z YouTube.

SUMMARY
=======
A constellation is a group of stars that forms an imaginary outline or pattern on the celestial sphere, typically representing an animal, mythological person or creature, a god, or an inanimate object.The origins of the earliest constellations likely go back to prehistory. People used them to relate stories of their beliefs, experiences, creation, or mythology. Different cultures and countries adopted their own constellations, some of which lasted into the early 20th century before today's constellations were internationally recognized. Adoption of constellations has changed significantly over time. Many have changed in size or shape. Some became popular, only to drop into obscurity. Others were limited to single cultures or nations.
The 48 traditional Western constellations are Greek. They are given in Aratus' work Phenomena and Ptolemy's Almagest, though their origin probably predates these works by several centuries. Constellations in the far southern sky were added from the 15th century until the mid-18th century when European explorers began traveling to the Southern Hemisphere. Twelve ancient constellations belong to the zodiac (straddling the ecliptic, which the Sun, Moon, and planets all traverse). The origins of the zodiac remain historically uncertain; its astrological divisions became prominent c. 400 BC in Babylonian or Chaldean astronomy, probably dates back to prehistory.
In 1928, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) formally accepted 88 modern constellations, with contiguous boundaries that together cover the entire celestial sphere. Any given point in a celestial coordinate system lies in one of the modern constellations. Some astronomical naming systems include the constellation where a given celestial object is found to convey its approximate location in the sky. The Flamsteed designation of a star, for example, consists of a number and the genitive form of the constellation name.
Other star patterns or groups called asterisms are not constellations per se but are used by observers to navigate the night sky. Examples of bright asterisms include the Pleiades and Hyades within the constellation Taurus or Venus' Mirror in the constellation of Orion.. Some asterisms, like the False Cross, are split between two constellations; others, like the Summer Triangle, share stars across several constellations.

Historia de las constelaciones.
Hace miles de años, los primeros hombres y mujeres, al observar el cielo nocturno, crearon patrones o líneas imaginarias que unían estrellas, formando figuras que asociaban con animales, seres mitológicos, dioses y objetos de su cotidianidad.
Estas agrupaciones o enlaces imaginarios de estrellas, los conocemos hoy como constelaciones y eran de gran utilidad en la antigüedad para fines prácticos, como la orientación, la navegación, la medición del tiempo y predicción del cambio de las estaciones o simplemente como forma de expresión de sus mitos y leyendas.
Muchas de las constelaciones que conocemos en la actualidad tienen su origen en las antiguas civilizaciones de Mesopotamia, en la media luna fértil entre los ríos Tigris y el Éufrates, como los sumerios en el año 3000 a.C. y posteriormente los acadios, asirios y babilónicos.
Los egipcios también seguían muy de cerca el movimiento de los astros y gracias a sus observaciones planificaban actividades agrícolas como la siembra o la cosecha. Un ejemplo es la estrella Sirio o Sepedet como la llamaban en el antiguo Egipto. Su primera y breve aparición al amanecer justo antes de la salida del Sol, marcaba la crecida anual del río Nilo.

SUMMARY
=======
In ancient times, only the Sun and Moon, a few stars, and the most easily visible planets had names. Over the last few hundred years, the number of identified astronomical objects has risen from hundreds to over a billion, and more are discovered every year. Astronomers need to be able to assign systematic designations to unambiguously identify all of these objects, and at the same time give names to the most interesting objects and, where relevant, features of those objects.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) is the officially recognized authority in astronomy for assigning designations to celestial bodies such as stars, planets, and minor planets, including any surface features on them. In response to the need for unambiguous names for astronomical objects, it has created a number of systematic naming systems for objects of various sorts.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

In modern astronomy, the sky is divided into 88 regions called constellations, generally based on the asterisms of Greek and Roman mythology. Those along the ecliptic are the constellations of the zodiac. The ancient Sumerians, and later the Greeks , established most of the northern constellations in international use today. When explorers mapped the stars of the southern skies, European and American astronomers proposed new constellations for that region, as well as ones to fill gaps between the traditional constellations. Not all of these proposals caught on,, but in 1922, the International Astronomical Union adopted the modern list of 88 constellations. After this, Eugène Joseph Delporte drew up precise boundaries for each constellation, so that every point in the sky belonged to exactly one constellation....

Constelallations, Brave et Beau.
Una constelación, en astronomía, es una agrupación convencional de estrellas, cuya posición en el cielo nocturno es aparentemente aproximada. Pueblos, generalmente de civilizaciones antiguas, decidieron vincularlas mediante trazos imaginarios, creando así siluetas virtuales sobre la esfera celeste. En la inmensidad del espacio, en cambio, las estrellas de una constelación no necesariamente están localmente asociadas; y pueden encontrarse a cientos de años luz unas de otras. Además, dichos grupos son completamente arbitrarios, ya que distintas culturas han ideado constelaciones diferentes, incluso vinculando las mismas estrellas.
Algunas constelaciones fueron ideadas hace muchos siglos por los pueblos que habitaban las regiones del Medio Oriente y el Mediterráneo. Otras, las que están más al sur, recibieron su nombre de los europeos en tiempos más recientes al explorar estos lugares hasta entonces desconocidos por ellos, aunque los pueblos que habitaban las regiones australes ya habían nombrado sus propias constelaciones de acuerdo a sus creencias.
Se acostumbra a separar las constelaciones en dos grupos, dependiendo el hemisferio celeste dónde se encuentren:
constelaciones septentrionales, las ubicadas al norte del ecuador celeste
constelaciones australes, al sur.
A partir de 1928, la Unión Astronómica Internacional (UAI) decidió reagrupar oficialmente la esfera celeste en 88 constelaciones con límites precisos, tal que todo punto en el cielo quedara dentro de los límites de una figura. Antes de dicho año, eran reconocidas otras constelaciones menores que luego cayeron en el olvido; muchas, ya no se recuerdan. El trabajo de delimitación definitiva de las constelaciones fue llevado a cabo fundamentalmente por el astrónomo belga Eugène Joseph Delporte y publicado por la UAI.

Constelallation Brave and Beautiful
A constellation , in astronomy , is a conventional cluster of stars , whose position in the night sky is apparently approximate. Peoples usually ancient civilizations, decided to link them by imaginary lines , creating virtual silhouettes on the celestial sphere . In the vastness of space , however , the stars of a constellation are not necessarily associated locally , and can be found at hundreds of light years from each other . Moreover, these groups are completely arbitrary , since different cultures have developed different constellations , including by linking the same stars .
Some constellations were devised centuries ago by the people who inhabited the regions of Middle East and Mediterranean . Others, which are further south, received its name from the Europeans in recent times to explore these places hitherto unknown to them, but the people who inhabited the southern regions had their own constellations named according to their beliefs.
It is customary to divide constellations into two groups, depending on where they are celestial hemisphere :
northern constellations , located north of the celestial Ecuador
southern constellations , to the south.
Since 1928 , the International Astronomical Union (IAU ) officially decided to regroup the celestial sphere in 88 constellations with precise boundaries , such that every point in the sky to stay within the limits of a figure. Before that year , were recognized under other constellations which then fell into oblivion , many no longer remember . The final delimitation work of the constellations was conducted primarily by the Belgian astronomer Eugène Joseph Delporte and published by the IAU .
Valiente ; That has value or acts with a lot of determination risky or difficult situations .
Beauty is an abstract notion linked to many aspects of human existence .

The invited speaker at the July 20, 2021 meeting of the Old Guard of Summit NJ was Bob Starcher, a teacher at the New Jersey Astronomical Association, who made a presentation on the history of the constellations and what they tell us about the earth’s orbit...
There were a few misstatements in the presentation, the correct statements and their associated timestamps are as follows:
07:03 The Scorpion asterism "spilled over into two constellations: Libra and Scorpius ."
45:20 Flamsteed's Numbers for star designations increase "toward the East ."
52:05 Canis Major was off to the lower left of the picture, "that is to the East ."
52:26 Sirius "in Canis Major" is about 8 light years away.
1:03:03 Citing a recent radio commercial for the International Star Registry, they claim to send the information to the "U.S. Copyright Office."
1:04:36 In response to a comment about registering a star at the Patent Office, they send the information "to the U.S. Copyright Office."
1:07:40 The correct name of the author is H.A. Rey and the book's title is "Find the Constellations." H.A. Rey also wrote another book called "The Stars a New Way to See Them."
1:08:25 The name for the measurable movement of nearby stars relative to the more distant background stars is "proper motion."
1:12:19 & 1:12:36 IAU's new (2006) class of minor planets that: (1) have sufficient mass to draw themselves into a sphere; (2) have cleared their orbit of planetesimals (i.e. the small accumulations of solid matter that is left over from the protoplanetary disk, from which the planets coalesced); and are not the satellites of other planets, are called "dwarf planets." The term "minor planets," is the name for the larger category that includes "dwarf planets" and "small solar system bodies" (which are similar to dwarf planets, but not spherical), and excludes comets and the natural satellites (I.e. "moons") of other bodies.

Odcinek był pierwotnie opublikowany w Walentynki 2017 roku.
Seria "Niebo na dłoni" to cykl filmów z podstawowymi informacjami o różnych obiektach astronomicznych. Odcinki były publikowane w latach 2017-2018 i dostępne na osobnym kanale (ponad 1200 subskrybentów). Niestety wiosną 2021 r. kanał nagle zniknął z YouTube. Pracownicy YouTube nie potrafią wyjaśnić dlaczego tak się stało, ani odtworzyć kanału i filmów. Aby materiały te nadal były dostępne dla wszystkich, będziemy je sukcesywnie zamieszczać w ramach Urania TV.

SUMMARY
=======
A constellation is a group of stars that forms an imaginary outline or pattern on the celestial sphere, typically representing an animal, mythological person or creature, a god, or an inanimate object.The origins of the earliest constellations likely go back to prehistory. People used them to relate stories of their beliefs, experiences, creation, or mythology. Different cultures and countries adopted their own constellations, some of which lasted into the early 20th century before today's constellations were internationally recognized. Adoption of constellations has changed significantly over time. Many have changed in size or shape. Some became popular, only to drop into obscurity. Others were limited to single cultures or nations.
The 48 traditional Western constellations are Greek. They are given in Aratus' work Phenomena and Ptolemy's Almagest, though their origin probably predates these works by several centuries. Constellations in the far southern sky were added from the 15th century until the mid-18th century when European explorers began traveling to the Southern Hemisphere. Twelve ancient constellations belong to the zodiac (straddling the ecliptic, which the Sun, Moon, and planets all traverse). The origins of the zodiac remain historically uncertain; its astrological divisions became prominent c. 400 BC in Babylonian or Chaldean astronomy, probably dates back to prehistory.
In 1928, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) formally accepted 88 modern constellations, with contiguous boundaries that together cover the entire celestial sphere. Any given point in a celestial coordinate system lies in one of the modern constellations. Some astronomical naming systems include the constellation where a given celestial object is found to convey its approximate location in the sky. The Flamsteed designation of a star, for example, consists of a number and the genitive form of the constellation name.
Other star patterns or groups called asterisms are not constellations per se but are used by observers to navigate the night sky. Examples of bright asterisms include the Pleiades and Hyades within the constellation Taurus or Venus' Mirror in the constellation of Orion.. Some asterisms, like the False Cross, are split between two constellations; others, like the Summer Triangle, share stars across several constellations.

Historia de las constelaciones.
Hace miles de años, los primeros hombres y mujeres, al observar el cielo nocturno, crearon patrones o líneas imaginarias que unían estrellas, formando figuras que asociaban con animales, seres mitológicos, dioses y objetos de su cotidianidad.
Estas agrupaciones o enlaces imaginarios de estrellas, los conocemos hoy como constelaciones y eran de gran utilidad en la antigüedad para fines prácticos, como la orientación, la navegación, la medición del tiempo y predicción del cambio de las estaciones o simplemente como forma de expresión de sus mitos y leyendas.
Muchas de las constelaciones que conocemos en la actualidad tienen su origen en las antiguas civilizaciones de Mesopotamia, en la media luna fértil entre los ríos Tigris y el Éufrates, como los sumerios en el año 3000 a.C. y posteriormente los acadios, asirios y babilónicos.
Los egipcios también seguían muy de cerca el movimiento de los astros y gracias a sus observaciones planificaban actividades agrícolas como la siembra o la cosecha. Un ejemplo es la estrella Sirio o Sepedet como la llamaban en el antiguo Egipto. Su primera y breve aparición al amanecer justo antes de la salida del Sol, marcaba la crecida anual del río Nilo.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
In ancient times, only the Sun and Moon, a few stars, and the most easily visible planets had names. Over the last few hundred years, the number of identified astronomical objects has risen from hundreds to over a billion, and more are discovered every year. Astronomers need to be able to assign systematic designations to unambiguously identify all of these objects, and at the same time give names to the most interesting objects and, where relevant, features of those objects.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) is the officially recognized authority in astronomy for assigning designations to celestial bodies such as stars, planets, and minor planets, including any surface features on them. In response to the need for unambiguous names for astronomical objects, it has created a number of systematic naming systems for objects of various sorts.
Eugène Joseph Delporte
Eugène Joseph Delporte (10 January 1882 – 19 October 1955) was a Belgian astronomer born in Genappe.
He discovered a total of sixty-six asteroids. Notable discoveries include 1221 Amor (which lent its name to the Amor asteroids) and the Apollo asteroid 2101 Adonis. He discovered or co-discovered some comets as well, including periodic comet 57P/du Toit-Neujmin-Delporte. He worked in the Observatoire Royal de Belgique (Belgian Royal Observatory), situated in the town of Uccle (after which the asteroid 1276 Ucclia is named). He started there in 1903 after receiving his doctorate that year from the Free University of Brussels.
In 1930 he drew the modern boundaries between all of the constellations in the sky, along lines of right ascension and declination for the epoch B1875.0.
The crater Delporte on the Moon is named after him.
