Special Astronomy Lecture

Nehru Planetarium cordially invites you to a Special Astronomy Lecture by Professor Srinivas Kulkarni, McArthur Professor of Astronomy and Professor of Planetary Sciences at the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena. USA.The topic of the lecture is “Cosmic Explosions” The lecture will be held on Friday, 24 October 2008 at 5 p.m. at Nehru Centre’s Hall of culture, Worli, Mumbai 400018.

Suhas B. Naik-Satam

Abstract:

Many of us think that the heavens are serene and calm. However, most of the interesting things in the universe starting from the birth of the Universe happen during explosions. The most notable cosmic explosions are supernovae, which mark the death of massive stars. During the explosion heavy elements (critical for our existence) are created. Cosmic explosions, thanks to their brilliance, allow astronomers to probe the young Universe and even infer the existence of dark energy. Over the past decade astronomers have uncovered new types of cosmic explosions. The speaker will summarize these new developments in the field of cosmic explosions (namely gamma-ray bursts) and proceed to speculate on yet new classes of cosmic explosions.

Calendar Year 2008

	January 4 - Quadrantids Meteor Shower. The Quadrantids are an above average shower, with up to 40 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower will peak this year on the morning of January 4, but some meteors can be visible from January 1 - 5. Best viewing will be from a dark location after midnight on the morning of the 4th. Look for meteors radiating from the constellation Bootes. The waning crescent moon this year means the shy will be dark enough to see even the faintest meteors.
	January 8 -New Moon
	January 22 - Full Moon
	February 1 - Conjunction of Venus and Jupiter. The planets Venus and Jupiter will appear only 0.6 degrees apart in the early morning sky.
	February 7 - New Moon
	February 7 - Annular Solar Eclipse. The path of annularity will only be visible over some parts of Antarctica. A partial eclipse will be visible throughout New Zealand and some parts of eastern Australia. (NASA Map and Eclipse Information \| NASA Eclipse Animation)
	February 21 - Full Moon
	February 24 - Saturn at Opposition. The ringed planet will be at its closest approach to Earth. This is the best time to view and photograph Saturn and its moons.
	February 21 - Total Lunar Eclipse. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of the Americas, Africa, and Europe. (NASA Eclipse Information)
	March 7 - New Moon
	March 20 - The Vernal Equinox occurs in the northern hemisphere at 05:48 UT. There will be equal amounts of day and night. This is also the first day of spring.
	March 21 - Full Moon
	April 6 - New Moon
	April 20 - Full Moon
	April 21, 22 - Lyrids Meteor Shower. The Lyrids are an average shower, usually producing about 20 meteors per hour at their peak. These meteors can produce bright dust trails that last for several seconds. The shower will peak this year on the night of April 21 & 22, although some meteors are usually visible from April 16 - 25. This year, a nearly full moon means that only the brightest meteors will be visible even at dark locations. If you do decide to give it a try, look for meteors radiating from the constellation of Lyra after midnight.
	May 5 - New Moon
	May 5 - Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower. The Eta Aquarids are a light shower, usually producing about 10 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower's peak will occur on May 5, however viewing should be good on any morning from May 4 - 7. This year, a new moon means ideal viewing conditions. The dark skies will reveal even the faintest meteors. The radiant point for this shower will be in the constellation Aquarius. Best viewing is usually to the east after midnight.
	May 20 - Full Moon
	June 3 - New Moon
	June 18 - Full Moon
	June 20 - The Summer Solstice occurs in the northern hemisphere at 23:59 UT. The Sun is at its highest point in the sky and it will be the longest day of the year. This is also the first day of summer.
	July 3 - New Moon
	July 9 - Jupiter at Opposition. The giant planet will be at its closest approach to Earth. This is the best time to view and photograph Jupiter and its moons.
	July 18 - Full Moon
	July 28 - Southern Delta Aquarids Meteor Shower. The Delta Aquarids usually produce about 20 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower will peak this year on the night of July 28, but meteors can be visible from July 18 - August 18. The waning crescent moon should provide relatively dark skies and good viewing conditions. The radiant point for this shower will be in the constellation Aquarius. Best viewing is usually to the east after midnight.
	August 1 - New Moon
	August 1 - Total Solar Eclipse. The path of totality will begin in northern Canada and move east and south through northern Greenland, Siberia, Mongolia, and central China. A partial eclipse will be visible throughout most of Greenland, Europe, And Asia. (NASA Map and Eclipse Information \| NASA Eclipse Animation)
	August 12 - Perseids Meteor Shower. The Perseids is one of the best meteor showers to observe, producing up to 60 meteors per hour at their peak. This year's peak occurs on the morning of August 12, but you may be able to see some meteors any time from July 23 - August 22. The waxing gibbous moon will provide some interference in the evening, but after it sets, the morning hours should provide some spectacular viewing opportunities. The radiant point for this shower will be in the constellation Perseus. Look to the northeast after midnight.
	August 15 - Neptune at Opposition. The blue planet will be at its closest approach to Earth. This is the best time to view Neptune, although it will only appear as a tiny blue dot in all but the most powerful telescopes.
	August 16 - Full Moon
	August 16 - Partial Lunar Eclipse. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. (NASA Eclipse Information)
	August 30 - New Moon
	September 13 - Uranus at Opposition. The blue-green planet will be at its closest approach to Earth. This is the best time to view Uranus, although it will only appear as a tiny blue-green dot in all but the most powerful telescopes.
	September 15 - Full Moon
	September 22 - The Autumnal Equinox occurs in the northern hemisphere at 15:44 UT. There will be equal amounts of day and night. This is also the first day of fall.
	September 29 - New Moon
	October 14 - Full Moon
	October 21 - Orionids Meteor Shower. The Orionids is an average shower producing about 20 meteors per hour at their peak. This shower usually peaks on the 21st, but it is highly irregular. A good show could be experienced on any morning from October 20 � 24, and some meteors may be seen any time from October 17 - 25. This year, the last quarter moon be a problem for faint meteors, but the brightest ones should still be visible from a dark location. Best viewing will be to the east after midnight.
	October 28 - New Moon
	November 13 - Full Moon
	November 17, 18 - Leonids Meteor Shower. The Leonids is one of the better meteor showers to observe, producing an average of 40 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower itself has a cyclic peak year every 33 years where hundreds of meteors can be seen each hour. The last of these occurred in 2001. The shower peaks this year on the morning of November 17, but you can usually see some meteors from November 13 - 20. A waxing gibbous moon will be a problem, so only the brighter meteors will be visible. Look for the shower radiating from the constellation Leo after midnight.
	November 27 - New Moon
	December 1 - Conjunction of Moon, Venus, and Jupiter. The crescent moon, Venus, and Jupiter will form a 3-degree triangle in the evening sky.
	December 12 - Full Moon
	December 13, 14 - Geminids Meteor Shower. Considered by many to be the best meteor shower in the heavens, the Geminids are known for producing up to 60 multicolored meteors per hour at their peak. The peak of the shower is on the morning of December 13, although some meteors should be visible from December 6 - 19. Unfortunately, the full moon will block out all but the brightest meteors this year, even in dark locations. The radiant point for this shower will be in the constellation Gemini. Best viewing is usually to the east after midnight.
	December 21 - The Winter Solstice occurs in the northern hemisphere at 12:04 UT. The Sun is at its lowest point in the sky and it will be the shortest day of the year. This is also the first day of winter.
	December 27 - New Moon

"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today."

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) {PFA the Effects of LHC}

Our understanding of the Universe is about to change....

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a gigantic scientific instrument near Geneva, where it spans the border between Switzerland and France about 100 m underground. It is a particle accelerator used by physicists to study the smallest known particles � the fundamental building blocks of all things. It will revolutionise our understanding, from the miniscule world deep within atoms to the vastness of the Universe.

Two beams of subatomic particles called 'hadrons' � either protons or lead ions � will travel in opposite directions inside the circular accelerator, gaining energy with every lap. Physicists will use the LHC to recreate the conditions just after the Big Bang, by colliding the two beams head-on at very high energy. Teams of physicists from around the world will analyse the particles created in the collisions using special detectors in a number of experiments dedicated to the LHC.

There are many theories as to what will result from these collisions, but what's for sure is that a brave new world of physics will emerge from the new accelerator, as knowledge in particle physics goes on to describe the workings of the Universe. For decades, the Standard Model of particle physics has served physicists well as a means of understanding the fundamental laws of Nature, but it does not tell the whole story. Only experimental data using the higher energies reached by the LHC can push knowledge forward, challenging those who seek confirmation of established knowledge, and those who dare to dream beyond the paradigm.

Will the world end on Wednesday? Do not fear, be ready for the outcome of the Manhattan Project in Geneva (LHD: Large Hadron Collider) which is recreating BIG BANG after scenario and any strong field might engulf the earth due to the production of Black holes.

Below are some snaps of LHC

Secrets of the Universe are going to reveal this Wednesday where size really does matter

Hello Everyone,
These pictures I am sending you all shows the gross disrespect andinsult to
the Indian National flag by this so called 'spiritual leader' and self
proclaimed 'GOD' Mataji Nirmala Devi. This disrespect to our country'sflag
shows that she has definitely no respect or love for the country thatgave
her so much and her husband who was an IAS officer and chief of the SCI
(he is seated next to her in the pics). Such a shame.
I do urge and plead with all Indians who deeply love their country to

eye of someone higher up in the Indian Govt who can really take someaction
against this cult.
pls dont keep this mail in your mail box as I feel keeping this in mail box itself is an insult to our country.

Hi Astrocrazy,

The following pictures are photos taken of the Columbia (SPACE Shuttle) explosion from an Israeli satellite in space.

You remember??? We lost a great Indian women in that .....KALPNA CHAWLA .... !

Up Close with The Universe on The History Channel

Brand new series, 'The Universe' premieres on December 12, 2007 at 10 PM

Starry Facts

� 95% of the Universe is still missing!

� There are more stars than all of the grains of sand on earth

� Stars come in different colours; hot stars give off blue light, and the cooler stars give off red light

� A comet's tail always points away from the sun

� Moon was Buzz Aldrin's mother's maiden name (Buzz Aldrin was the second man on the moon)

� When the moon is directly over your head, you weigh slightly less

� 1 percent of television static is a remnant of the Big Bang

� Even though it is the second planet, Venus is actually the hottest planet in the solar system

Mumbai, December 11, 2007 � Questions about the Universe have consumed humans since the dawn of time. In the 50 years since we made our first tentative explorations of space, our knowledge of the cosmos has increased dramatically, using powerful telescopes, robotic probes, and manned missions. But only recently has computer technology allowed scientists to illustrate in stunning detail these awe-inspiring conclusions.

Watch History begin as The Universe, a groundbreaking series from The History Channel, employs cutting-edge computer-generated imagery to recreate the moment it all began. The series brings distant planets and faraway stars up close allowing viewers to gaze at black holes and comets, and witness the birth and death of galaxies and solar systems in t his riveting new weekly series that premieres with a two hour special 'Beyond the Big Bang' on Wednesday, December 12 at 10:00 PM on the channel.

Rajesh Sheshadri, Senior Vice President, Content and Communications, The History Channel India, said, " The Universe is a premiere series for the channel, enhanced further by Prof Yash Pal's involvement. Together with Nehru Planetarium, we celebrate a stunning visual experience that showcases universe as one has never seen before. The series poses one of history's greatest questions � Where did we come from? � and recreates that amazing moment when everything started."

The three groundbreaking episodes this December include:

The Universe: Beyond the Big Bang � Two hour special

Wednesday, 12^th December @ 10 pm

It all began inside a violent, blinding explosion that threw everything into chaos. Ever since, our greatest thinkers have peered into that chaos in search of order, logic and the answers to where we began. As earlier generations learned to decipher the cosmic clues of how we came to be, we stepped from revelation to revelation; epiphany to epiphany. Aristotle told us the world was round. Ptolemy conceived of a system of planets, stars and sun. Copernicus placed the sun at the center of this system; Galileo confirmed it. Newton explained what held it all together. Einstein offered insight into what fueled it. Hubble proposed it started with a "Big Bang."

The Universe: Alien Galaxies

Wednesday, 19^th December @ 10 pm

To know our place in the universe take a look far, far away to the realm of Alien Galaxies. Our galaxy is one of hundreds of billions in the universe. The Milky Way consists of more than a billion stars, our sun being only one of them. Take a view of the universe through the Hubble Space telescope and go back almost all the way to the Big Bang. Cutting-edge computer graphics are used to bring the universe down to earth to show what life would be like on other planets, and to imagine what life forms might evolve in alien atmospheres.

The Universe: Spaceship Earth

Wednesday, 26^th December @ 10 pm

For over 4.5 billion years, the Earth has survived in one of the most violent "neighborhoods" in the Universe. Repeated catastrophes have brought the evolution - as well as the end - of life over and over again. THE UNIVERSE episode, "Spaceship Earth," will take viewers on a high performance ride through the formation of the third planet from the Sun. Galactic investigators will hunt for answers to some of man's most puzzling questions. How was Earth created? What creatures hold clues to how life began? Where did the planet's water come from? Why does Earth have the best "real estate" for humans in the Universe? And what evil forces threaten its ultimate demise? From its early struggles with asteroids and comets to its current battles against global warming, the creation of Spaceship Earth is one of the most complex and controversial scientific detective stories of all time.
