The Story of the Armillary Sphere:
The armillary sphere, armillary sphere, is the model of the celestial sphere. Latin name: armilla, i.e. bracelet, bracelet. This orientator is an astronomical device consisting of circular rings, which was used in antiquity and the Middle Ages. BC In 255, Eratosthenes, a Greek mathematician, created the first.
The rings corresponded to some of the main circles of the celestial sphere (equator, ecliptic, horizon, meridian, turning circles and polar circles, etc.) and were equipped with scale graduations for measuring angles. In the center of the structure was a sphere, which at first demonstrated the Earth and later the Sun. With its help, it was actually possible to observe and model the movement of the stars around the central planet.
It disappeared from Europe at the beginning of the Middle Ages. Only later did it appear again in the scientific life of the old continent, through the mediation of the Arabs. More and more perfect models were created, and in the Renaissance, armillary spheres were already symbols of wisdom, knowledge and power. A structure similar to this orientator was also built in China, which served the development of astrology in the Far East.
Armillary spheres remained popular well into the 18 nineteenth century. They were mass-produced on the model of individual pieces made of expensive metal or assembled from wood. Nowadays, they are very popular as ornaments.
