ARCSAT ID NUMBER: AS01 DESCRIPTIVE TITLE: Search for Short-Period Planets Orbiting Bright White Dwarfs PI: Brett Morris (UW) OBSERVER(S): Brett Morris (UW), Doug Branton (UW) UNCERTIFIED/UNTRAINED OBSERVERS: Undetermined Pre-MAP students ... In addition, since typical white dwarfs are roughly Earth-sized, the transit of an Earth-sized planet can cause changes in brightness on the order of several tens of percent for durations on the order of one minute (Agol 2011). ...

Johann Kepler - a Legislator of the Sky. The laws of the planets movements put by Johann Kepler destroyed the thousand year old dogmas about the circles and spheres and opened the way to scientific understanding of celestial occurrences. ... The best object for observation was Mars - its orbit unlike the Earth's one has a noticeable eccentricity, the rotation period in comparison with Jupiter and Saturn is not too long and observation conditions are better than for Mercury and Venus. ...

In ancient times the solar system was thought to be the whole Universe, so the study of planetary motions was cosmology. ... The planets other than the Moon and Sun generally move West to East through the stars, but occasionally stop and move in the opposite direction ( retrograde motion). In order to explain the retrograde motion of the planets, the geocentric model of the Solar System shown above puts the planets on small circles called epicycles . ...
