The discovery of the solar system ?

Who is the solar system?

In the Solar System, the Sun and many planets, astronomical objects are inserted, and all these celestial objects are bound by the gravitational force of each other in the Solar System. 

Some orbits revolve around, the group of objects of these celestial bodies called the planetary system Which does not have other stars, such as asteroids, dwarf planets, natural satellites, asteroids, meteors, comets, and celestial dust. Our solar system is formed by combining our sun and its planetary bodies. 

These celestial bodies include eight planets, their 166 known satellites, five dwarf planets and billions of small bodies.Except for some notable exceptions, it took thousands of years for humanity to know the existence of a solar system.                                                                   
                                                                                  
                                          
Before exploring the solar system.

Before the discovery of the Solar System, humanity's thinking was somewhat different.People first thought that the Earth is the center of the universe and is clearly different from the divine or northwestern objects roaming in the sky. But in 140 st Claudius Toulmy said (according to the Jeocentric concept) that the earth is in the center of the universe and all the house objects revolve around it.

Solar system search.

Nicholas was the first European astronomer who considered the Earth to be outside the center of the Universe, that is, to apply the Heilosentrism model. Earlier, the entire Europe believed in Aristotle's concept, in which the earth was the center of the universe, and the Sun, the stars, and other bodies revolted around it.

Copernicus' book, De Revolutionibus, was published in 1530, in which he said that the earth revolves around its axis and completes the revolution in one day and completes the Sun's journey in one year. Copernicus composed protopic tables to find the position of stars which became quite popular among other astronomers.

In the 17th century, Galileo Galilei, and Johannes Kepler address pressed that the earth revolves around the sun after the invention of the telescope began to search for planets and moons and around 1704, "Solar System" word was first published in English was done.

Galileo Galilei discovered before the physical details of the solar system and they know were found in orbit four satellites around Jupiter and Galileo Galilei discovered the Christian Hujens discovered four of Saturn's moon Titan and Saturn, the rings and in Giovanni Domenico Cassini was discovered four satellites of Saturn and Sun in search of Binary Stars in 1781 when he saw a new comet. Its class showed that it was a new planet, Uranus.And thus our solar system was discovered.

NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Reveals New Details of the Orion Nebula’s Star Formation.

  This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image captures the Orion Nebula (Messier 42, M42), the nearest star-forming region to Earth, located about 1,500 light-years away. A captivating new image captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope offers an extraordinary look into the Orion Nebula, the nearest massive star-forming region to Earth. Located just 1,500 light-years away, this nebula is visible to the naked eye below the three stars forming Orion's "belt." The region is home to hundreds of newborn stars, including two protostars featured in the image: HOPS 150 and HOPS 153. Named after the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey, conducted with ESA’s Herschel Space Observatory, the protostars HOPS 150 and HOPS 153 provide key insights into the early stages of star formation. HOPS 150, visible in the upper-right corner of the image, is a binary star system, with two young stars orbiting one another. These protostars are surrounded by small dusty disks, where material from th...

New Method Detects Small Asteroids in Main Belt, Offering Insight for Planetary Defense.

  An international team of physicists, led by MIT researchers, has developed a groundbreaking method to detect small asteroids, as small as 10 meters in diameter, within the main asteroid belt. These space rocks, ranging from the size of a bus to several stadiums wide, were previously undetectable using traditional methods. The team's discovery, detailed in a paper published in Nature, could significantly improve tracking of potential asteroid impactors, aiding planetary defense efforts. The main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, is home to millions of asteroids, but until now, scientists could only detect objects roughly a kilometer in diameter. The new detection technique, which utilizes the "shift and stack" method, is able to identify much smaller asteroids, even those far from Earth, enabling more precise orbital tracking. This breakthrough is crucial for planetary defense, allowing scientists to spot near-Earth objects that may pose a threat in the fu...

XSPECT Payload Successfully Validates Performance through Cas A Observation.

  The XSPECT instrument captures a detailed spectrum of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), encompassing both the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) background and the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB). The flux observed above 8 keV predominantly results from the combined contributions of CXB and GCR. The presented spectrum, depicted in the figure, is derived from a cumulative integration time of 20 ksec, collected across multiple orbits, providing valuable insights into the X-ray emissions associated with Cas A. XPoSat, India's inaugural X-ray polarimetric mission, has achieved a significant as the XSPECT instrument captures its initial observations from the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) supernova remnant. Launched on January 1, 2024, XPoSat is equipped with two co-aligned instruments, namely the POLarimeter Instrument in X-rays (POLIX) and X-ray SPECtroscopy and Timing (XSPECT). This mission is designed to unravel the mysteries of cosmic X-ray sources. While POLIX focuses on examining X-ray po...
