What is the difference between

Astronomy and Astrophysics?

- Today we will explain how about
asronomy
- Astronomy might be defined as the
subject of the where and when
related to the description celestial
body with the why and how being
covered more by Astrophysics.
 Instantaneous Phenomena
1. Day

- During the day a variety of phenomena may be seen

- One of them If the sun will sink condition was called
twilight.
purple area is the area that cut off from direct sunlight.
2. Night

- If the moon visible, its shape will be

crescent, gibbous, even circular
- And we can see the twinkle for
example in the star pattern of Orion,
one of the many constellations, is
Betelgeuse a red star in contrast to
the blue of Rigel
 A few hours
1. Day

-. The heavens are never static, for example: tree reveals the
Suns movement across the sky
-. If observation is kept up throughout the day, the Sun is seen
to rise above the eastern horizon,
- Then reach a maximum altitude above the line joining the
north to the south points, then descend in a mirror image of its
forenoon path to set on the western horizon.
2. Night

- As drakness falls, the first stars become

visible above the eastern horizon
- Then this is a situation where the twilight
fainter star can be seen, after an hours passed
the stellar groups rise from the eastern
horizontal. When the star like the sun reaches
its maximum altitude then set or become dim
and invisible as daylight returns
 A month
- The sun is not the only object to
move independently of the stellar
patterns
- Position of the moon to the stars
show it too moves but a much faster
rate, about thirteen degrees per day.
Twenty-nine and one-half days after
new moon, it is a one month
 A year
A year is linked to the seasonal changes Sun
rises, increases altitude until it culminates on
the meridian at apparent noon, then falls down
the sky until it sets on the western horizon.
Sun not only revolved with the stars on the
celestial sphere about the Earth in one day but
that it also moved much more slowly along the
path among the stars on the celestial sphere,
making one revolution in one year,returning to
its original position with respect to the stars in
that period of time.
