• Understand the unifying physical concepts
underlying Space science and Application
• Become familiar with the Space and solar
system - it’s our home in the universe!
• Other concepts and besides our own: Join in
the excitement of discovery and value of Space
Science
• Gain an appreciation of how science works
• Improve your skills in quantitative reasoning

• The traditional lecture is far from the ideal teaching tool
– Researchers on education study these things rigorously!
• I can’t “pour knowledge into you”
• Learning is making meaning for oneself.
• It is you who must actively engage in the subject matter and
assimilate it in a manner that makes it meaningful
• This course will emphasize active learning and an understanding
of the unifying concepts of space Science and Meteorology

It is defined by the solar wind,

from the Sun that creates a very tenuous atmosphere

SE (Geo-Space)
-the region of outer space near Earth.
it includes the upper region of the atmosphere (ionosphere) and
the magnetosphere.

-The Van Allen radiation belt lies within the geospace.

The outer boundary of geospace is the magnetopause, which forms


an interface between the planet's magnetosphere and the solar wind.

• what to do with it and


• you don’t understand it?

We just might get to know THE universe better?

Observation (DATA)*
* - Stars can be arranged into categories based on the
features in their magnitudes, colors, spectra…etc.

How do we categorize stars?


Options:
1. by their magnitudes, flux and luminosity

2. by their color (temp.) as determined


by their blackbody curve

3. by their brightness and “strength” (depth)


of the absorption lines in their spectra

Astronomy
• Astronomy is study of celestial objects, Such as
( Sun, Planets, Comets, Stars, Galaxies, …etc)
• Astronomy includes many branches, such as:
Solar Astronomy, Planetary Science, Stellar Astronomy,
Galactic Astronomy, Extragalactic Astronomy,
Cosmology, …etc.

• Astronomy is the oldest of the natural sciences.


What is the space Science?

• Space Science: is the sciences involved in space


exploration and study natural phenomena and physical
bodies occurring in the outer space.

• Space Science includes many branches,


such as:
(Astronautics Aeronautics, Space plasma physics, ..etc)

Where are we ?
Positional Astronomy
The Astronomical Units

❑ On Earth, we usually measure distances in meter.

❑ However, using meters to measure distances in


astronomy is not practical.

❑ That’s why, astronomers use other units to


measure distances.
(Units)
1- Astronomical Unit (AU)
➢ The Astronomical Unit (AU)
is the average
distance between the Earth and the Sun.

➢ 1 𝐴𝑈 = 149.6 × 106 Km

➢ It is appropriate unit used to measure the


distance within the solar system range.
2- Light Year (Ly)
➢ Light Year (Ly) is the distance traveled by light in one
year.

➢ Ex1: How long is a light year, in meters and in AU?

➢ It is appropriate unit used to measure the distance


within the interstellar medium (beyond the solar system).
3- Parsec (Pc)
➢ The Parsec (Pc) is the distance at which one
astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arc second.

➢ The Parallax is the angle (p) between two sight-lines to


the star which observed from two different positions
