    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orrery

    Orrery. A small orrery showing Earth and the inner planets. An orrery is a mechanical model of the Solar System that illustrates or predicts the relative positions and motions of the planets and moons, usually according to the heliocentric model. It may also represent the relative sizes of these bodies; however, since accurate scaling is often ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertzsprung–Russell_diagram

    The Hertzsprung–Russell diagram (abbreviated as H–R diagram, HR diagram or HRD) is a scatter plot of stars showing the relationship between the stars' absolute magnitudes or luminosities and their stellar classifications or effective temperatures. The diagram was created independently in 1911 by Ejnar Hertzsprung and by Henry Norris Russell ...

    c. 750 BCE – During the reign of Nabonassar (747–733 BC), the systematic records of ominous phenomena in Babylonian astronomical diaries that began at this time allowed for the discovery of a repeating 18-year cycle of lunar eclipses. [6] 776 BCE – Chinese make the earliest reliable record of a solar eclipse.

  8. Protoplanetary disk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protoplanetary_disk

    Protoplanetary disks are thought to be thin structures, with a typical vertical height much smaller than the radius, and a typical mass much smaller than the central young star. [12] The mass of a typical proto-planetary disk is dominated by its gas, however, the presence of dust grains has a major role in its evolution.

    The planets are not shown at the appropriate distance from the Sun. Historical models of the Solar System first appeared during prehistoric periods and are being updated to this day. The models of the Solar System throughout history were first represented in the early form of cave markings and drawings, calendars and astronomical symbols. Then ...
