Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2000 February 26 Impact: 65 Million Years Ago Credit: courtesy V.L. Sharpton, LPI Explanation: What killed the dinosaurs? Their sudden disappearance 65 million years ago, along with about 70 percent of all species then living on Earth, is known as the K-T event (Cretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction event). Geologists and paleontologists often entertain the idea that a large asteroid or comet impacting the Earth was the culprit. In such a cosmic catastrophe, the good(!) news would be that the impact would generate firestorms, tidal waves, earthquakes, and hurricane winds. As for the bad news ... debris thrown into the atmosphere would have a serious global environmental consequences, creating extended periods of darkness, low temperatures, and acid rains - resulting in a planet-wide extinction event. In 1990, dramatic support for this theory came from cosmochemist Alan Hildebrand's revelation of a 65 million year old, 112 mile wide ring structure

135. Boy Scout Astronomy Merit Badge Program Program, fees, and badge requirements for offering by the Ritter PlanetariumBrooks Observatory of Toledo, Ohio. http://www.rpbo.utoledo.edu/bscouts.html

The Ritter Planetarium-Brooks Observatory Astronomy Merit Badge Program is based on the requirements to earn an Astronomy Merit Badge. The program includes a tour and use of the hands-on displays in our lobby, a specialized planetarium program, and either a tour of the Ritter 1-Meter Telescope , or observing at the Brooks Observatory , weather permitting. Scouts are also given a helpful workbook ( view a 4 page sample - requires Acrobat) based on the badge requirements, and each group is given a useful star and planet locator to keep and use during future stargazing. Astronomy Merit Badge Programs will be offered*: Thursday, September 18, 2003 Saturday, October 25, 2003 Wednesday, November 12, 2003 Saturday, December 13, 2003 All programs begin at 6:30pm and last 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Seating is limited! If your troop would like to attend one of our Astronomy Merit Badge Programs please RSVP in advance. Please contact the Planetarium Office at (419) 530-2650, Mondays through Fridays, 9:00am - 5:00pm to schedule your troop. Admission is $9.00 per person including all attending adults. Note: Please keep in mind that while this program covers most of the Astronomy Merit Badge requirements, it does not complete them all. Scouts will still need to complete several activities. Those activities that are not completed by the program will be covered by planetarium staff. Additionally, no planetarium staff are Merit Badge Counselors, and therefore are not qualified to sign off on a scout's requirements. If you have any further questions about this program, please contact the Associate Director

Astronomy Picture of the Day Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2004 June 7 Mammatus Clouds Over Mexico Raymundo Aguirre Explanation: When do cloud bottoms appear like bubbles? Normal cloud bottoms are flat because moist warm air that rises and cools will condense into water droplets at a very specific temperature, which usually corresponds to a very specific height. After water droplets form that air becomes an opaque cloud. Under some conditions, however, cloud pockets can develop that contain large droplets of water or ice that fall into clear air as they evaporate. Such pockets may occur in turbulent air near a thunderstorm , being seen near the top of an anvil cloud , for example. Resulting mammatus clouds can appear especially dramatic if sunlit from the side. The above mammatus clouds were photographed last month over Monclova, Mexico News flash: Rare transit of Venus across the Sun tomorrow Tomorrow's picture: venus crosses the sun Archive Index Search Calendar ...

139. Islamic Astronomy By Owen Gingerich About ancient astronomy preserved and improved by the Islamic empire. http://users.kfupm.edu.sa/phys/alshukri/PHYS215/Islamic astronomy.htm

Islamic astronomy by Owen Gingerich Scientific American , April 1986 v254 p74(10) Historians who track the development of astronomy from antiquity to the Renaissance sometimes refer to the time from the eighth through the 14th centuries as the Islamic period. During that interval most astronomical activity took place in the Middle East North Africa and Moorish Spain. While Europe languished in the Dark Ages, the torch of ancient scholarship had passed into Muslim hands. Islamic scholars kept it alight, and from them it passed to Renaissance Europe. Two circumstances fostered the growth of astronomy in Islamic lands. One was geographic proximity to the world of ancient learning, coupled with a tolerance for scholars of other creeds. In the ninth century most of the Greek scientific texts were translated into Arabic, including Ptolemy's Syntaxis , the apex of ancient astronomy. It was through these translations that the Greek works later became known in medieval Europe . (Indeed, the Syntaxis is still known primarily by its Arabic name, Almagest, meaning "the greatest.")
