Abstract:
Between national and international trends of terms: formation of Ukrainian astro- nomical terminology in late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Ukrainian scienfific astronomical terminology has been rapidly evolving in the late XIX and early XX century due to the publication of scholarly works on astronomy in Ukrainian. During this period, the de- velopment of astronomical terminology system, as well as other subsystems of the scientific language was not a normal, natural way of challenging conditions of stateless Ukrainian nation.

Abstract:
This text addresses the Polish scientifi c terminology of astronomy. This subject is relatively rarely discussed in the linguistic literature. The authors handle the divisions of astronomical terms by specifi c criteria, the process of coining the Polish astronomical terminology, and tendencies noticeable in its formation over time. They also deal with the old astronomical vocabulary, which has survived to date and is used as the basisfor modern terms. Furthermore, they analyse awareness of the language and terminology among astronomers in the past and in the present. Finally, they discuss the

Abstract:
The article examines modern Chinese astronomical terminology in light of the thesis regarding the contradiction between the universality/objectivity of the scientific worldview (SW) and the subjectivity of the linguistic worldviews (LW) of individual ethnic groups that describe the SW. It is shown that Chinese astronomy contains a number of terms rooted in traditional natural philosophy and cultural foundations. Among the borrowed terms, examples are identified where Western concepts were translated either based on the denotative meaning or on the denotative’s visual appearance, relying on ima

While today the term ‘galaxy’ is a household word primarily associated with the huge congregations of stars far outside the Milky Way, until about 1950 these structures were generally known as ‘nebulae’. Although the singular form ‘galaxy’ was commonly used, it was typically considered as just another word for the Milky Way. Edwin Hubble’s celebrated discovery in the 1920s of the extragalactic nature of the spirals was for a long time referred to as the discovery of ‘extragalactic nebulae’, whereas the plural term ‘galaxies’ was only employed by a minority of astronomers.

Using the numerical method of calculating the discrete derivative of the overnight brightness of the night sky from time it is possible not only to distinguish a cloudless sky from a cloudy one, but even to distinguish the high level clouds from medium and low level ones.

After Ibn Ezra’s work, Hebrew became a language of science, and eventually of research, among the Jews of the Iberia Peninsula and Europe.

Abstract:
This research article delves into the historical and mathematical intricacies of the construction of sine functions, particularly focusing on ancient Indian mathematical concepts and their evolution. It begins by highlighting the significance of sine (jya) as a fundamental trigonometric function in Indian mathematics, alongside its synonyms in Sanskrit. The historical journey of the term “sine” is traced back to ancient Indian mathematical texts, which were later translated into Arabic and then into Latin, ultimately leading to the adoption of the term “sine” in modern mathematics.

AbstractThe transformation between the International Terrestrial Reference System (ITRS) and the Geocentric Celestial Reference system (GCRS) is an essential part of the models to be used when dealing with Earth's rotation or when computing directions of celestial objects in various systems. The 2000 and 2006 IAU resolutions on reference systems have modified the way the Earth orientation is expressed and adopted high accuracy models for expressing the relevant quantities for the transformation from terrestrial to celestial systems. First, the IAU 2000 Resolutions have refined the definition o

AbstractAlthough astrobiology is a science midway between the life and physical sciences, it has surprisingly remained largely disconnected from recent trends in certain branches of both life and physical sciences. We discuss potential applications to astrobiology of approaches that aim at integrating rather than reducing. Aiming at discovering how systems properties emerge has proved valuable in chemistry and in biology. The systems approach should also yield insights into astrobiology, especially concerning the ongoing search for alternative abodes for life. This is feasible since new data b

Abstract:
Theoretically the prayer times have been determined by the Koran and Sunnah through the phenomenon of the movement of the sun. Based on the instructions of the Koran and the Sunnah there are various nashes that seem to contradict one another. For example, in the determination of early Fajr time, nashexpresses with some terminologhy, for example, ghalas, isfar, and ishbah. This needs to be defined practically in astronomical rules, making it easier for us to carry out worship. This paper will describe the meaning of prayer times from the language of the Koran and Sunnah into astronomical rules,

Abstract The Babylonian horoscopes, edited by Rochberg in 1998, contain sets of astronomical and astrological data on dates of, or close to, individuals’ births. Each element of these short and concise texts reflects the astral divinatory practices and astronomical observation developed over the first millennium BC, as well as the latest innovations, including the zodiac as coordinate system and the occurrence of new astrological schemes partly based on it, which had previously remained obscure.

AbstractIn 1960, Jung lamented psychology’s limited impact on global fate. Although Fordham tried to reassure him that Jungians were promoting his work, Jung was looking from the other end of the telescope, seeing the need to rescue humanity from its one‐sidedness that would ultimately lead to nuclear conflict. Astronomical evidence, such as the Fermi paradox, echoes Jung’s concerns about likely self‐destruction. Rather than promoting Jungian ideas to interested groups, the imperative lies in identifying crucial messages for global survival and engaging the public in them. Science provides som
