Today it is no longer a mere speculation. In fact till now more than 460 exso-planets that is planets of other stars have been discovered. Many of them are massive like Jupiter. What an irony! ivaSvaacaI ]%p<aI ( Origin of Universe ) : Time starts now About 460 crore years ago there was a very big and colossal gas cloud- primordial solar cloud. The cloud rotated about itself due to self gravity and began to shrink. In the center the mass accreted and became dense. Most of the mass in the cloud concentrated at the center resulting in the birth of sun. As the core of this sun became more massive and denser the temperature rose to an extent that thermonuclear reaction fusion could take place. Sun started to shine. While the rest of the material went around and around the central mass. Small dust particles were attracted initially by electrostatic attraction. Once the small rocks became sufficiently bigger gravity also played a part. Slowly the proto planets were formed. While the rest of the material went around and around the central mass. Small dust particles were attracted initially by electrostatic attraction. Once the small rocks became sufficiently bigger gravity also played a part. Slowly the proto planets were formed. Proto planets fused to gather to form planets like Mercury, Earth and so on. Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn were formed by the accretion of the light elements. The icy materials and gases like methane became Uranus and Neptune. The leftover proto planets became the kuiper cloud while the left over original material became the Oorth cloud. The materials that failed to accrete into a planet due to the gravitational perturbation of Jupiter became asteroid belt. Initial phase of solar evolution was full of bombardments. One result is pockmark like craters on Moon, Mercury and so on. As most of the space rocks in the inner region got exhausted the bombardment tapered off around 3 billion years ago. On such bombardment resulted in the formation of moon. Once it was postulated that moon could have formed due to accretion of materials around Earth, could have been captured or could have split from Earth Recent studies indicate that Mars like proto planet impacted on Earth and moon resulted from the debris that was thrown out. ( Origin of Solar System ) : saaO rmaalaocaI inaima-tI The formation of solar system is not pure guess work. Looking at the night sky one can clearly see evidence of gas cloud accreting, star formation, accreting disk, planet formation.

Ceres is in the asteroid belt others in the Kuiper belt. Many Kuiper Belt objects, exist in what is believed to be a vast shell of icy and rocky objects that live at the very edge of our solar system. After moon brightest celestial object in the night sky is Venus. Moon with Shinning Venus Venus Phases in April-May 2004 Galileo Galilee used telescope to observe Venus. On seeing the waxing and waning phases of Venus, just like that of Moon, Galileo concluded heliocentric solar system. Ptolemy's system Copernicuss system Galileo discovered the four largest moon of Jupiter on Jan 7, 1610?. In his telescope the moons appeared as tiny dots. The position of the dots changed over days and he found that they were orbiting Jupiter. Jupiter & its 4 Moons Jupiter & its 4 Moons During July 1994 a comet named Shoemaker Levy was captured by Jupiter and crashed on its surface. Shani has been much maligned planet in Hindu tradition. Actually it is one of the beautiful planets with its majestic rings. Shani has been much maligned planet in Hindu tradition. Actually it is one of the beautiful planets with its majestic rings. Actually when Galilio looked at Saturn in 1610 through telescope he was stunned. He perceived Saturn to have two structures on both side. With improved telescope in 1616 he perceived it to structure like ears to a face. 1655 Huygens could discern it to be a ring like structure. It was Cassani who in 1676 distinguish it to be number of rings Actually when Galilio looked at Saturn in 1610 through telescope he was stunned.

It was Cassani who in 1676 distinguish it to be number of rings Uranus also has rings, but no so grand as Saturn. 13 March 1781 Uranus was discovered by William Hershel and his sister Carolina. It was the first planet that found no place in any bible, puran or religious texts. 13 March 1781 Uranus was discovered by William Hershel and his sister Carolina. It was the first planet that found no place in any bible, puran or religious texts. In olden days the sudden appearance of Comets was considered bad omen. Comet was called Dumketu and in various civilisations it was imagined to be various scary objects. Norman king William considered the appearance of comet in 1066 as good omen. A new star a new king was his slogan. He fought his enemies and became the king of England. As the sun rays evaporate and makes the tail of the comet the tail is prominent when it is nearer to sun and it always points against the sun =-|||i-||| |ir-= : (Revisiting the assumption after knowing Universal facts) |=|:|| |r||-|||| -||-||| |||-||| |-- +i||-| r|-| : |-|+ / i|||-| || r| |r -||r| |: r| |r -||r| |r | =- r |- ||| |r -r|-| i-||- -||r|- +||-|| =zi-|- ||-| -||r| Non existence of Fixed frame of reference for observation. ||= |r||| =|||| +||| :|||| :|+| +|||| +||-| |-||||- -|i|n-| |:|| / -|-|+ ||| |||-| | |||| |||r|-|-| |=|:|| |r||-|||| -||-||| |||-||| |-- +i||-| r|-| : |-|+ / i|||-| || r| |r -||r| |: r| |r -||r| |r | =- r |- ||| |r -r|-| i-||- -||r|- +||-|| =zi-|- ||-| -||r| Non existence of Fixed frame of reference for observation. ||= |r||| =|||| +||| :|||| :|+| +|||| +||-| |-||||- -|i|n-| |:|| / -|-|+ ||| |||-| | |||| |||r|-|-| Light will take about 1.25 seconds to reach Earth from moon. It takes about 27 days to go around Earth, but the period between each full moon is about 30 days. Moon goes around in elliptical orbit, tilted at about 5 degree. Apogee is at 357200 km and perigee is 407100 km. The relative position of Earth, Moon and Sun results in the phases. Though every new moon day moon is in line with Sun, due to the tilt of its orbit, it will not cause eclipse every new moon day. Eclipse seen from another planet ! Two moons of Mars occasionally cause partial eclipse and Pathfinder mission captured the eclipse that took place in 2004.
