CELESTIAL SHADOWS
/ WESTFALL, JOHN
: 2015
ABSTRACT / INHALTSTEXT
MUCH OF WHAT IS KNOWN ABOUT THE UNIVERSE COMES FROM THE STUDY OF
CELESTIAL SHADOWS—ECLIPSES, TRANSITS, AND OCCULTATIONS. THE MOST
DRAMATIC ARE TOTAL ECLIPSES OF THE SUN, WHICH CONSTITUTE ONE OF THE MOST
DRAMATIC AND AWE-INSPIRING EVENTS OF NATURE. THOUGH ONCE A SOURCE OF
CONSTERNATION OR DREAD, SOLAR ECLIPSES NOW LEAD THOUSANDS OF AMATEUR
ASTRONOMERS AND ECLIPSE-CHASERS TO TRAVEL TO REMOTE POINTS ON THE GLOBE
TO SAVOR THEIR BEAUTY AND THE ADRENALINE-RUSH OF EXPERIENCING TOTALITY,
AND WERE LONG THE ONLY SOURCE OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE HAUNTINGLY
BEAUTIFUL CHROMOSPHERE AND CORONA OF THE SUN. LONG BEFORE COLUMBUS, THE
CURVED SHADOW OF THE EARTH ON THE MOON DURING A LUNAR ECLIPSE REVEALED
THAT WE INHABIT A ROUND WORLD. THE RARE AND WONDERFUL TRANSITS OF VENUS,
WHICH OCCUR AS IT PASSES BETWEEN THE EARTH AND THE SUN, INSPIRED
EIGHTEENTH CENTURY EXPEDITIONS TO MEASURE THE DISTANCE FROM THE EARTH TO
THE SUN, WHILE THE RECENT TRANSITS OF 2004 AND 2012 WERE THE MOST WIDELY
OBSERVED EVER
AND STILL PRODUCED RESULTS OF GREAT SCIENTIFIC VALUE. ECLIPSES, TRANSITS
AND OCCULTATIONS INVOLVING THE PLANETS, THEIR SATELLITES, ASTEROIDS AND
STARS HAVE HELPED ASTRONOMERS TO WORK OUT THE DIMENSIONS AND SHAPES OF
CELESTIAL OBJECTS—EVEN, IN SOME CASES, HITHERTO UNSUSPECTED RINGS OR
ATMOSPHERES—AND NOW TRANSITS HAVE BECOME LEADING TOOLS FOR DISCOVERING
AND ANALYZING PLANETS ORBITING OTHER STARS. THIS BOOK IS A RICHLY
ILLUSTRATED ACCOUNT OF THESE DRAMATIC AND INSTRUCTIVE ASTRONOMICA L
PHENOMENA. WESTFALL AND SHEEHAN HAVE PRODUCED A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY THAT
INCLUDES HISTORICAL DETAILS ABOUT PAST OBSERVATIONS OF CELESTIAL
SHADOWS, WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM THEM, AND HOW PRESENT-DAY
OBSERVERS—CASUAL OR SERIOUS—CAN GET THE MOST OUT OF THEIR OWN
OBSERVATIONS.
