Observations are the basis of astronomy. The presentation was prepared by Pshelenskaya S.V., teacher of physics and astronomy.

Features of astronomy as a science. 1. The main source of information in astronomy is observations. All information about what is happening outside the Earth in outer space can only be obtained on the basis of light and other types of radiation coming from these objects. 2. Almost all phenomena studied in astronomy last long in time (hundreds, millions and billions of years). 3. The need to indicate the position of celestial bodies in space and the impossibility of immediately indicating which of them is closer and which is further from us. All observed luminaries seem equally distant.

A telescope is the main instrument used in astronomy to observe celestial bodies, receive and analyze the radiation coming from them. (tele - far, skopeo - look.) The purpose of the telescope is 1. To collect more light coming from a weak source of radiation. 2. Increase the angle of view from which the celestial object is viewed.

Characteristics of the telescope. Penetrating power - the greater the penetrating power of a telescope, the weaker in luminosity objects it allows to see. The resolution of a telescope is the ability to distinguish small details on the surface of a celestial body.

Both characteristics of a telescope depend on the diameter of its lens. W = F/f – telescope magnification

Telescope - refractor (refracto - refract) - a telescope whose objective is a lens. Galileo's telescope had one converging lens as an objective, and a diverging lens as an eyepiece. This optical design produces a non-inverted (terrestrial) image. The main disadvantages of the Galilean telescope are its very small field of view. This system is still used in theater binoculars, and sometimes in homemade amateur telescopes. Galileo telescope

Kepler's telescope Johannes Kepler improved the telescope in 1611 by replacing the diverging lens in the eyepiece with a converging lens. This made it possible to increase the field of view and pupil relief, but the Kepler system gives an inverted image. Another advantage of the Kepler tube is that it has a real intermediate image in the plane of which a measuring scale can be placed. In fact, all subsequent refracting telescopes are Kepler tubes

Telescope - reflector (reflecto - reflect) - a telescope whose lens is a concave mirror. This telescope design was proposed by Isaac Newton in 1667. Here, a flat diagonal mirror located near the focus deflects a beam of light outside the tube, where the image is viewed through an eyepiece or photographed.

The scheme was proposed by Laurent Cassegrain in 1672. This is a variant of a two-mirror telescope lens. The primary concave mirror of a larger diameter reflects the rays onto a secondary convex mirror of a smaller diameter). The Cassegrain system was modified by the Soviet optician D. D. Maksutov into the Maksutov-Cassegrain system, which became so popular that it is one of the most common systems in astronomy, especially in amateur astronomy.

The largest telescope in Eurasia, the BTA, is located in Russia, in the mountains of the North Caucasus and has a main mirror diameter of 6 m. It has been operating since 1976.

A mirror-lens (meniscus) telescope is a telescope that uses a combination of mirrors and lenses.

Radio telescopes are designed to receive cosmic radio radiation.

Thank you for your attention. http:// galactic.name is an astronomical portal where you will find a lot of interesting things for yourself. Materials for the presentation are taken from this site.

Astronomy- science is not experimental, but visual, because the key place in it is mainly occupied by visual observations.

Constantly using posters and handing out a large number of pictures is difficult, as it takes up a lot of time that could be spent usefully.

It is not always possible to use a telescope for such studies, if only because not all classrooms (let alone at home) have one.

Powerpoint presentations will help you easily explain complex theoretical material,

show the structure of different celestial bodies or simply interest the student with interesting and colorful stories about mysterious planets.

You have the opportunity to open up new cosmic worlds, galaxies and stars to your students and thereby make them truly interested in astronomy.
