Astronomy \ 1-1
Is there a difference between astronomy and astrophysics? What are the issues that astrophysics will solve? In the book, which started by seeking answers to these questions, coordinate systems, star formation and the life cycle of a star, stellar movements, light from stars, galaxies, the formation of galaxies, the differences between galaxies, background radiation in astrophysics, high energy astrophysics, gravitational waves are discussed.
The reader will notice his progress as he progresses in this book, which is prepared in an understandable language and supported by visuals for a wide audience, from those who are only interested in astrophysics to those who want to research in the field of observational astrophysics.

Living in a mysterious universe has always excited people and people have always wondered about the formation of the universe. Thinking about the universe in the face of this curiosity has become an inevitable task for all responsible scientists. All living things exist in the universe within a short period of time. We humans can only discover a small part of the events of the universe during this time period. Universe; It is a scientific, multi-parameter, complex set of relationships with its main basis, rather than a whole consisting of space, substances, laws and facts. In addition, man is in need of a correct explanation about the universe and his own existence.
In this book; One of the main problems of the history of thought, what the universe is, the relationship between man and the universe, the place and problems of man in this universe, the correct, good and useful ideas put forward from ancient times to the modern age, as well as the dimensions of some ideas that need to be reinterpreted and criticised. His different ideas and comments were discussed.

In the book, it has been tried to give a historical process how the science of astronomy has developed from the ancient times to the present. This work; it consists of six main sections: The Birth of Astronomy and Astronomy in Ancient Civilizations, Astronomy in the Ancient Greek Period, Medieval Astronomy, Renaissance and Copernican Theory, Modern Astronomy and the Development of Astronomy After the 17th Century. In the first part of the book, the contributions of ancient civilizations to astronomy are discussed, and in the second part, the contributions of the ancient Greek civilization to astronomy. The third part, which is devoted to medieval astronomy, consists of two parts, astronomy in the Christian World and astronomy in the Islamic World. In addition, in this part, the development of astronomy from the foundation of the Ottoman Empire to the Republic and the introduction of modern astronomy to the Ottoman Empire are discussed. In the fourth chapter, the Heliocentric Theory of the Universe founded by Copernicus, and in the fifth chapter, modern astronomy established by Kepler. The last chapter is devoted to the study of astronomy after the seventeenth century.
How was the universe born? How did it evolve? What is a neutron star? What is a black hole? What is dark matter? What is dark energy? What kind of end awaits the universe?
Why is a week 7 days? How was the diameter of the Earth measured in ancient times? What were the contributions of Islamic scientists to astronomy? What mistakes did Einstein make besides his great discoveries?
What can satellites do and not do? Can satellites see inside our house? Can he listen to us? How do satellites help us find addresses?
What is space law? What are space policies? What does space wars mean? What's the trend? What did Turkey do about space, what could not?
Space has always been and will continue to be a subject that has occupied humanity since time immemorial. Although books have been written on the subject of space in many languages, there is no book that covers the history of space sciences, today's space technologies, law and politics under a single cover, neither in Turkish nor in a foreign language. In an area where superstitions roam, this book; It explains scientific, technological and political developments in a language that everyone can understand.
