Sundial at the Autumn equinox - Sundial at the Autumn equinox - Morning sundial dating from the 18th century. It was restored in 1981. It is visible in the courtyard of the Old College of Jesuites in Reims. The yellow lines represent the path of the end of the shadow of the style for the 21st of each month of the year. At the ends of these curves are the signs of the zodiac, which symbolize the different months of the year. The end of the shadow of the style indicates the autumn equinox. 17th century sundial in Reims (France), showing the sun 'shadow during autumn equinox

Astronomical clock of the cathedral of Strasbourg - Detail - Astronomical clock of Strasbourg Cathedral - Detail - Located in the cathedral of Strasbourg, the astronomical clock was built by a team of Swiss watchmakers in 1547. It was restored and modified between 1838 and 1843 by Jean-Baptiste Schwilgue, a Strasbourg watchmaker. However, a first clock, known as the “Three Kings”, existed from 1354. Here, the planetary and the phases of the moon. At the top of the clock, a ball indicates the phases of the Moon (here, the first quarter). Below, the planetary indicates the position of the planets around the Sun. It is surrounded by the twelve signs of the zodiac. In the foreground, the clock dial. The cathedral's south transept houses an 18 - mettre astronomical clock, one of the largest in the world, built in the 16th century. It was restored and modified in the 19th century

Supernova type 1a 1994D in galaxy NGC 4526 - Supernova 1994D in galaxy NGC 4526 - Supernova 1994D, visible as the bright spot on the lower left, occurred in the outskirts of disk galaxy NGC4526. Supernova 1994D was not of interest for how different it was, but rather for how similar it was to other supernovae. In fact, the light emitted during the weeksafter its explosion caused it to be given the familiar designation of a Type Ia supernova. If all Type 1a supernovae have the same intrinsic brightness, then the dimmer a supernova appears, the farther away it must be. By calibrating a precise brightness - distance relation, astronomers are able to estimate not only the expansion rate of the universe (parameterized by the Hubble Constant), but also the geometry of the universe we live in (parameterized by Omega and Lambda). The large number and great distances to supernovae measured in 1998 have been interpreted as indicating that we live in a previously unexpected universe
