Now available in a new fifth edition, the popular astronomy laboratory manual Astronomers as Observers and Experimenters: Exercises and Projects for the Laboratory and Night Sky integrates new exercises, connections between exercises, as well as all the favorite exercises from past editions - updated to connect to recent discoveries and news in astronomy.
Students will gain experience in making meaning out of observations and experiments by using observational results to make models of the universe. The excitement and challenge of the scientific process is evident at every step. Students will recognize astronomy as a human endeavor, with real people needing to make real decisions all along the way. The reader also is prompted to understand uncertainty in measurements and observational bias that is ever-present in astronomy. This edition of the book encourages users to connect the laboratory work to material they are learning elsewhere in the course, placing that laboratory work within the historical evolution of our understanding of the universe. Science as a shining example of human ingenuity, determination and drive to know what is around us comes alive.
Instructors will appreciate the flexibility this manual offers. Exercises are simple to use individually and can be adapted to be completed in a single laboratory setting, however long that may be. Many exercises, however, can be extended to connect to other course material or to lead to reflective homework outside of class. Some exercises can be grouped into a larger set of activities pertaining to a topic like, say, the structure of the Milky Way. Other exercises can be developed into full projects as desired.

Описание: This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING
Название: Newton and the Club of Astronomers ISBN: 3035801401 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783035801408 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 13790.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: We know Isaac Newton as a brilliant polymath, inventor of the calculus and the person who first began to suss out the fundamental laws of physics. But in this delightful account of his life and thought aimed at young readers, we learn oh, so much more about Newton and his secret life . . . on the dark side of the moon. Newton and the Club of Astronomers invites us on a wildly imaginative journey to join Newton as he meets with the famous (and definitely secret) Club of Astronomers in their clubhouse on the hidden side of the moon. At the Club's meetings, we learn about Newton's discoveries and understand his pioneering thoughts about gravity, planetary orbits, and much, much more. Whimsical and fanciful, yet firmly rooted in Newton's actual ideas and discoveries, Newton and the Club of Astronomers is the perfect introduction for curious children to one of the great figures of scientific history.
