ASTRONOMY NOTES
By OLAF HALVERSON
A young Danish astronomer by
the name of Roemer was observing
the moons of Jupiter in the year
1675. His observations were made
at the Paris Observatory. With
{great precision he observed just
when one of the satellites passed
into the shadow cast by Jupiter.
The beginnings of these suc
cessive eclipses of Jupiter’s satel
lite were signals flashed at equal
intervals. When the earth is trav
eling away from Jupiter, the in
terval between signals is greater
rhan the true interval because the
light from each successive signal
has a greater distance to travel
to reach the earth.
When traveling toward Jupiter,
the interval between signals is less
than the true interval, because
the light from each succeeding sig
nal has a shorter distance to travel
to reach the earth.
The total delay across the
earth’s orbit was 1,000 seconds.
The speed of light would there
fore be the distance across the
earth’s orbit which is 186,000,000
miles, divided by 1,000, or 186,000
miles per second.
