Discussing Astronomy in regards to Philosophy
1 How can we talk about the evolution of stars over billions of years when human beings have been observing stars for only a few thousand years?
2 Some advances in our knowledge have been made possible through better equipment, such as Hubble's discoveries using the 100-inch Hooker telescope at Mount Wilson. What other major discoveries in cosmology have relied on improvements in existing apparatus?
3 Was the formation of Earth unique, or was it similar to the processes which created all the planets in the solar system?
4 The temperature of Earth's core is estimated to be > 5,000 degrees Celsius. Is the core temperature of a planet like Jupiter hotter or colder? Why? Does the distance from the Sun affect the core temperature?
5 How does Clyde Tombaugh's work fit into the scientific method?
