【推荐1】Astronomy(天文学)is the oldest science known to men. Thousands of years ago, men looked at the stars and wondered about the heavens(苍穹).
The Greeks studied astronomy over 2, 000 years ago. They could see the size, color and brightness of a star. They could see its place in the sky. They watched the stars move as the seasons changed. But the Greeks had no tools to help them study the heavens. Each new tool added to the field of astronomy helped men reach out into space. Until there were telescopes, men did not know much about the moon. They did not know that the planet called Saturn(土星)had rings around it. Their sight was so limited that they could not see all the planets. In the early 1700s people thought there were only six planets. Pluto(冥王星), the last of the nine plane nets to be discovered was not seen until 1930.
Before the spectroscopes(分光镜), men didn’t know what kind of gas was in the sun or other stars. Without radio telescopes(射电望远镜), we did not know that radio noise came far from space.
Today, astronomy is a growing science. We have learned more in the past fifty years than in the whole history of astronomy.
