Very high energy gamma ray map of the Galactic Center region Sagittarius A* (pronounced Sagittarius A-star, standard abbreviation SgrA*). The color scale shows the number of gamma rays per pixel, while the white contour lines illustrate the distribution of molecular gas. Their correlation points to a hadronic origin of gamma ray emission. The right panel is simply a zoomed view of the inner portion (HERE). |

William Stanley Jevons (1835–1882) |
Christopher Scheiner's 1626 representation of the changes in sunspots over time (1630, recordings from 1611). Scheiner, a Jesuit astronomer, eventually published the definitive work of the 17th century on sunspots, in which he accepted Galileo’s argument that sunspots "move like ships" on the surface of the Sun. Scheiner and Galileo agreed that sunspots counted against the Aristotelian doctrine of celestial incorruptibility. Earlier Jesuits had been open on this point. Clavius argued for the corruptibility of the heavens after the nova of 1572. Scheiner here publicized the fact that the Jesuit theologian Robert Bellarmine had argued for the igneous nature of the stars and the corruptibility of the heavens even before 1572 on the basis of biblical exegesis and the tradition of the Church Fathers. Cardinal Orsini paid for the printing of this lavish work (Rosa Ursina - The Rose of Orsini, 1630). |
