TIDES SIMULATOR
Tides Simulator. The following animation demonstrates how the gravitational pull of the the Moon, and the Sun, act to create tidal activity in the Earth 's oceans. LIFE CYCLE OF A STAR Life Cycle of a Star. Stars are formed in clouds of gas and dust, known as nebulae. Nuclear reactions at the centre (or core) of stars provides enough energy to make them shine brightly for many years. This stage is known as the ' main sequence '. The exact lifetime of a star depends very much on its size. Very large, massive stars burntheir
SEASONS - EXPERIMENT You should now see that the amount of light that hits something depends upon how tilted it is. (Steps 2 and 3) Because the heat and light from the Sun come in the same way, when something is tilted, it will be colder. (Step 4) If you are on a part of the Earth that is tilted away from the Sun, it will make the Sun seem to be closer tothe Horizon.
GROUND TELESCOPES

Most of the telescopes used by astronomers are known as ground-based, this means that they are located here on Earth at some of the best observing sites in the world. It is obviously easier to have a telescope here on Earth as itcan be visited
EARTH, SUN AND MOON
Earth, Sun and Moon (not to scale) Credit: BBC The Earth is the planet that we all live on.; As with all planets it is spherical in shape, although some ancient civilisations thought that the Earth was flat!

You can measure your weight in any units you like (kilograms, newtons, elephants) and the units will be the same on the other planet - for example EVIDENCE FOR THE BIG BANGEGGNAUT (PRIMARY)

THE SKY TONIGHT
The pictures below show where the planets will be in the sky around the UK tonight and the patterns of the stars (constellations) around them.. The Whole Sky images show the entire sky as a big round picture. The horizon is all the way around the edge with the middle being right overhead, as if you were standing on a hill somewhere dark and could see the entire sky.EARTH, SUN AND MOON

RED GIANT | NATIONAL SCHOOLS' OBSERVATORY When hydrogen fuel at the centre of a star is exhausted, nuclear reactions will start move outwards into its atmosphere and burn the hydrogen that’s in a shell surrounding the core. As a result, the outside of the star starts to expand and cool, turning much redder. Over time, the star will change into a red giant and grow to more than 400 times its original size. EXAMPLES OF WELL-KNOWN SUPERNOVAE Figure 2: Crab Nebula. Credit: European Southern Observatory. Kepler's Supernova was discovered in 1604 in our Galaxy, before the invention of the telescope. It was visible to the naked eye and is the most recently discovered supernova in the Milky Way. SN 1987A was a type II supernova in a nearby dwarf galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud. SUNRISE AND SUNSET AROUND THE WORLD Here you can find out the Sunrise and Sunset times this year for anywhere in the world. Choose from the options, and then click on the map to choose a part of the World to study. A data file will be created which you can download and use in a spreadsheet package likeExcel.
CALCULATING YOUR WEIGHT ON ANOTHER PLANET 11 to 14. We calculate weight by multiplying mass by the gravity on the surface of the planet. Weight = Mass x Surface Gravity. So, if you know your weight on Earth and the surface gravity on Earth, you can calculate your mass. You can then calculate your weight on any other planet by using the surface gravity of that planet in the sameequation.

The Earth moves around the Sun at a speed of around 30 kilometers every single second!. It takes 365.25 days to go all the way around. One year is 365 days, so every four years we add up the extra "0.25s" to make one extra day and have a leap year of 366 days.. The Earth is said to be orbiting the Sun, and whilst it orbits it also spins aroundon it's axis.

More PROBLEMS WITH THE ATMOSPHERE Although the atmosphere of the Earth is very important for life, it does cause many problems for astronomers; problems that are so important that whenever someone wants to build a new, professional telescope, they always put it somewhere where the problems are as small as possible.. Some of the problems include: Weather - It is almost impossible to do astronomy through thick cloud!
