What part did thomas harriott play forming current ideas about astronomy?
Harriott is credited with early works in optics, and made the first illustrations of the Moon as seen through a telescope, some months before Galileo. His observations on sunspots were also the earliest, or perhaps THE earliest, on record. But he published none of his astronomical and scientific work, and his manuscripts were finally cataloged after his death. http://galileo.rice.edu/sci/harriot.html

Astronomical observations.

An observatory.
What was the astronomical canon about?
The astronomical canon was a compilation of mathematical tables and astronomical data used for making astronomical calculations and observations. It helped astronomers accurately predict the positions of celestial bodies in the sky.
How does the atmosphere limit astronomical observations?
The atmosphere blocks certain wavelengths of light from reaching telescopes on the ground, which affects the quality of observations. It also causes distortion and blurring of images due to turbulence and temperature gradients. This limits the resolution and accuracy of astronomical observations made from Earth.
What astronomical event did the Anasazi record in stone?

Did early astronomical observations conform to the expected predictions of the transparent sphere hypothesis?
true
Why where astronomical important to the Mayas?
Because they had access to eguivanty answears to a long records of observations
What are instruments that gather and record information from a distance?
Some instruments that gather and record information from a distance include satellites, drones, radar systems, and telescopes. These tools allow for remote sensing and monitoring of a variety of parameters such as weather patterns, land use changes, and astronomical observations.
Where and when did ptolemy make his astronomical observations?
Ptolemy would have made his observations in Egypt probably Alexandria around AD120 up to his death in AD168.
