The topic of our lesson: "How ancient people imagined the Universe" Geography Grade 5 Teacher: Drozd V.G.

The purpose of the lesson: to study earlier the concept of the Universe.

You have probably heard the word "Universe" more than once. What it is? The Universe is outer space and everything that fills it: celestial bodies, gas, dust In other words, it is the whole world. Our planet is part of an immense universe, one of the countless celestial bodies

Modern ideas about the structure of the Universe took shape gradually. In ancient times, they were not at all the same as they are now. For a long time, the Earth was considered the center of the Universe.

On this lesson we learn about what the universe is, how it works. We will discover the world of mysterious and incomprehensible outer space. Let's talk about how ancient civilizations imagined the Universe. Let's get acquainted with scientists, whose ideas have taken an important place in the development of science.

Theme: Universe

Lesson: How Ancient People Envisioned the Universe

As we found out, the methods of cognition can be different. The tasks and goals set for the study are also different. But the only most important interest will remain the interest in knowing the world, the Universe, living and nonliving. What is the universe?

Definition.Universe - it is an endless outer space and everything that fills it: celestial bodies, gas, dust.

If we peer into the starry sky, then we will see various star constellations, solar systems, The Moon - they are all constituents of the Universe, even stars that cannot be seen without the help of special instruments - telescopes (Fig. 1).

In ancient times, there were no such telescopes, and people watched the movement of the Moon, Sun, planets for thousands of years, so it is clear that modern views about the structure of the Universe did not arise instantly, but developed gradually, and the earliest views were significantly different from what we know today. ... Different peoples of the world represented the universe in different ways.

According to the ideas of the ancient Indians, our Earth was like a hemisphere, which rested on the backs of huge elephants that stood on a giant tortoise. The turtle leaned on a snake, which closed space and personified the world (Fig. 2).

For example, the Egyptians had a different idea of ​​the structure of the universe. Their views were expressed in the form of myth.

The god of the earth - Geb and the goddess of the sky - Nut loved each other very much, and therefore, in the beginning, our Universe was merged into one. Every evening, Nut gave birth to stars that appeared in the sky. Every morning before sunrise, she swallowed them. And so it went on from day to day, from year to year, until Geb began to get annoyed, which is why he called Chickpea a pig that eats its piglets. Then the sun god - Ra intervened and called the wind god - Shu so that he divided heaven and earth. So Nut ascended to heaven in the form of a cow. Sometimes Tekhnud came to the aid of her husband Shu, but she very quickly got tired of supporting the heavenly cow and began to cry, and her tears rained down on the ground (Fig. 3).

The ancient Babylonians envisioned the land as a huge mountain. In the west of this mountain was Babylonia, which was surrounded by mountains from the east, and the sea was in the south. The sea as a whole surrounded this whole mountain, and on top of it, in the form of an inverted bowl, was the sky. The people of Babylonia thought that there was also land and water in heaven, perhaps even life. Heavenly dry land is the belt of 12 constellations of the Zodiac: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces. They also believed that the sun comes out and goes back into the sea (Fig. 4). They could not explain the observed phenomena of nature.

The ancient Jews imagined the Earth differently. They lived on a plain, and the Earth seemed to them to be a plain, on which mountains rise here and there. The Jews assigned a special place in the universe to the winds, which bring rain or drought with them. The abode of the winds, in their opinion, was in the lower zone of the sky and separated the Earth from the heavenly waters: snow, rain and hail. There are waters under the Earth, from which canals go upward, feeding the seas and rivers. The ancient Jews apparently had no idea of ​​the shape of the entire Earth.

The ancient Greeks made a great contribution to the development of views about the structure of the universe. For example, the philosopher Thales (Fig. 5) imagined the Universe in the form of a liquid mass, inside which there is a large bubble shaped like a hemisphere. The concave surface of this bubble is the vault of heaven, and on the lower, flat surface, like a cork, it floats flat earth... It is easy to guess that the idea of ​​the Earth as a floating island of Thales was based on the fact that Greece is located on islands. Pythagoras (Fig. 6) was the first to suggest that our Earth is not flat, but looks like a ball. And Aristotle (Fig. 7), developing this hypothesis, created a new model of the world, according to which the stationary Earth is located in the center and it is surrounded by eight solid and transparent spheres. Ninth - ensured the movement of all celestial spheres. According to these views, the Sun, the Moon and the planets known at that time were attached to the eight spheres (Fig. 8). Aristotle's views were not shared by all scientists. Aristarchus of Samos came closest to the truth, because he believed that not the Earth, but the Sun was located in the center of the Universe, but he could not prove it. Subsequently, his views were forgotten for many years.

Aristotle's views have been entrenched in science for a long time, for example, the ancient Greek scientist Claudius Ptolemy in the center of the Universe also had a stationary Earth around which Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn revolved. The entire universe was confined to the sphere of fixed stars. The scientist outlined all these views in his work "Mathematical construction in astronomy". The views of Claudius Ptolemy have existed for more than the 13th century and for a long time have been the reference book of many generations of astronomers.
