Neil deGrasse Tyson's Guide to Skywatching

[@StarTalk]

Do you have a favorite constellation?

[@stephenbennett9991]

I don't believe in astrology. . . because I'm a Sagittarius and we are naturally skeptical.

[@michaelccopelandsr7120]

Yes, it's the, "THE ALL-STAR." A new constellation I'd like your help to get the IAU to officially recognize. Seeing as how you've taken on the IAU and won. My idea for changing the stars includes Orion, Taurus and Pleiades (Subaru). Figure it's time to put something up there that's relevant to us, don't you think? Take Orion's belt and "Betelgeuse" becomes the head with a baseball hat. The 3 stars of Orion's belt make up the 3 fat belt loops on a baseball uniform. Below the belt are two legs bending at the knee. "Saiph" is the back foot and "Rigel" is the front foot. The spear pointing at Subaru/Pleiades is the bat and Subaru/Pleiades is the baseball flying away after being hit. "Bellatrix" is the hand that let go and "Aldebaran" of Taurus is the bat's tip. Put it all together and you get, "THE ALL-STAR." In my case, I see a left-handed batter with a, "7," on the jersey. Which makes him, "Mickey." (As it should be) But you can put any number you want, making, "THE ALL-STAR," any player you want. Please help

[@miguelungson9230]

Maybe you could help me understand what kind of math was happening between 9:58-10:06 (when Neil asked what percent of 26000 yrs ago was 2000 yrs ago)? How did they come up with 113, approximated to 112, only to explain that there are now 13 zodiac signs? I do suck at math, so your help will be much appreciated. Thank you very much.

[@Lemononosi]

@@miguelungson92302000 to 26000 is 1:13

[@seraph741]

​​​​​​​@@miguelungson9230Our view of the stars moves over the course of 26000 years as the Earth's axis rotates in a 360 degree circle during this cycle. 360 degrees is approximated to the 365 days in a year, meaning that you can roughly say for every 1 degree of axis change, the relative position of the stars compared to the sun is shifted by about 1 day. So if you find the fraction of 26000 years that has passed, you can find how many degrees the axis has changed by which roughly correlates to how many days the view of the sky has shifted by. So, if you take 2000/26000, you get 1/13. This is approximated to 1/12 to easily align with 12 months in a year. Which means that the relative position of the stars to the sun has shifted by about 1/12 of a year (1 month) since 2000 years ago when the zodiac dates were defined. In other words, this means that the zodiac dates are off by about 1 month (according to what our view of the position of the stars relative to the sun is today). At least that's my understanding of it. I may not be totally accurate as I'm going based on memory of what I heard in the video and my rough understanding of it. I'm no astrophysicist nor mathematician, I just took a few minutes to reason it out in my head.

[@neomoneri6140]

"what percent of 26,000 is 2,000?" Is another way of asking "what is 2,000 divided by 26,000?" Which is just 2 / 26, which, when simplified, is 1 / 13. One-thirteenTH.

[@seanin1990]

I was on Zanzibar using the Star Walk app identifying constellations and stargazing with my Celestron Astromaster binoculars for about an hour. I noticed a group of locals gathering around behind me. They were fascinated with the constellations. They had no knowledge of Zodiac signs or how far away stars were. One guy asked me how many kilometers away Vega was. I laughed and said do you know what a billion is, he said yes so I said a couple hundred billion and he laughed. I felt like an Expert Astrophysicist that night. 🤣

@@anitagarcia8056 it's actually both. Meridiem is more historically proper and specifies time, meridian is more common while more concisely specifying location. The two terms are enough related to each other as to be interchangeable when talking about local (locational) time of day, while putting "meridiem" on a map would not be proper because the map does not reflect actual time of day, even if it includes time offsets based on meridians.

In italian, "noon" is "mezzogiorno" (literally mid-day) which comes from the latin "meridies"... which originates also the word "meridian".

How I remember latidute vs longitude: Picture a balloon that looks like the Earth, with a pencil in the middle pointing towards the surface. As the balloon rotates, if we move the pencil up or down from the middle line (called the equator) at a certain angle called latitude, it will create a line that runs parallel to the equator. This line is also called the latitude. But, if we move the pencil left or right (east or west) at a different angle called longitude and change the rotation of the balloon to be north to south, the pencil will create a line called longitude.

[@shelbydonaldson5862]

i remember thinking of it as if you are climbing up a really tall LADDER (latitude). With the rungs, or steps, of the ladder representing latitude, and the ladder rails stretching all the way from the bottom of the earth (south pole) to the top of the earth (north pole) representing longitude.
