Skywatch for the week of July 5, 2021


Today, Monday, July 5
th, at 6:27 pm, the earth will reach aphelion – that’s the point in our planet’s slightly elliptical orbit where it’s farthest from the sun. On average, we're about 93 million miles from the sun, but right now we are roughly 94 and a half million miles out. So how come we're having summer? Well, not everyone on earth is experiencing summer; winter has just begun for folks south of the equator. Our seasons aren't caused by any variation in the earth-sun distance; after all, that extra million and a half miles only makes for a tiny 2% difference. Temperature changes occur because our planet is tilted over a little, about 23 and a half degrees, from straight up and down. During summer in the northern hemisphere, the top half of earth leans inward, which puts the sun higher in our sky, and causes summer; in the winter the top half of earth leans away from the sun, putting it lower in our sky, which cools things down.

The long double file of scarlet-robed doctors which “processed,” at this year’s brilliant Commemoration at Oxford, from Wadham, the vice-chancellor’s College, to the Sheldonian Theatre was, from the feminist’s point of view, less interesting from its inclusion of the prime minister, the chancellor of the exchequer, Lord Jellicoe, and the archbishop of Canterbury, than from the unique event that it contained a woman.

Skywatch for the week of May 10, 2021


Mon May 10, 2021 ANNIE CANNON’S OBAFGKM
99 years ago, on May 9th, 1922, astronomers formally adopted Annie Jump Cannon’s stellar classification system. Annie Cannon worked at the Harvard Observatory, where she sorted and catalogued stars by their spectra. When you look at the light of a star through a specialized prism, a spectroscope, you can see that within the rainbow spectrum of the star’s light there are thin gaps where the color is missing. These gaps result when the outer atmospheres of those stars absorb the light, and the spacing of the gaps can be matched up with similar lines made by gases on earth, which tells us what elements are present in those far-away stars – kind of a cosmic bar code. Cannon sorted the stars, and after some adjustments that had to be made because of things like high temperature ionization, resulted in a ranking of stars from hot to cool: O, B, A, F, G, K and M, which countless astronomy students have memorized by using this simple phrase – “Oh, Be A Fine Girl (or Guy,) Kiss Me!
