JOHANNES KEPLER
• He studied the movement of the planets
• There are three rules that describe the movement of the planets around the Sun.
• Primera Ley (1609): Los planetas se desplazan alrededor del Sol describiendo órbitas elípticas, estando el Sol situado en uno de los focos.
• Kepler nunca consiguió comprender el sentido último de tales de leyes.Isaac Newton (1643-1727) enunciaría su teoría de la Gravedad y la leyde la Gravitación Universal en 1685 ofreciendo así una explicación natural de las leyes de Kepler como consecuencia de la interacción (atracción) gravitacional que sufren los cuerpos.

The Sun
• What is it? – It is a star.
• Is it far or close to us?.– It is 150 million km away from us
• Is it hot or cold?– Very hot.
• What is it made of?– Hydrogen and helium
Stars
• They form when gases (hydrogen) are pulled together by gravitational forces.
• They are so hot that they emit light and heat.
• An enormous cloud of dust and gas, a nebula, surrounds the stars

What is the Hubble?
• es un telescopio que orbita en el exterior de la atmósfera, en órbita circular alrededor de la Tierra a 593 km sobre el nivel del mar, con un período orbital entre 96 y 97 min. Denominado de esa forma en honor del astrónomo Edwin Hubble, fue puesto en órbita el 24 de abril de 1990
