For example the museum offered telescopes for me to use to look into the sky. When I walked further along the site I notice a Solar System Lawn Model

In 1571‚ he settled in Scania after inheriting the land of his father and uncle and built a small observatory. Here‚ he discovered a star‚ one which had not been seen‚ that was brighter than Venus. This supernova in the constellation Cassiopeia shocked the scientific community because it suggested that the universe was not in fact perfect and unchanging

Kamiokande is a neutrino observatory which is under Mount Kamioka in Japan. This experiment uses a 50‚000 ton tank of water to detect and record flashes of neutrinos. In 1987 this observatory was one of three neutrinos observatories to detect neutrinos emitted from a super nova. Another neutrino experiment is called the Ice Cube Experiment. This experiment uses detectors that are lowered into holes melted into the Antarctic. Ice Cube is the world’s largest neutrino observatory. Neutrinos are still

1.0 Introduction The Hubble Space Telescope was created by and named after astronomer Edwin P. Hubble. He was known for his creation of Hubble’s Law which is used to calculate the rate at which the universe is expanding. He is also known for his discovery of the galaxies that are outside the Milky Way. The Hubble Space Telescope is a large telescope that is placed in orbit around the earth. Scientists have figured out that by placing a telescope in space‚ putting it outside of earth’s atmosphere
