The Sun and the Gods: A Cosmic Journey

Music He comes a son to do. He comes a son to do. He comes a son to do. Music It's just one of billions of stars in the Milky Way, but to us it's that great big hot ball of awesome week haul of the sun. It is in a G2 spectral class and has a luminosity class and a station of five. Hence, with a VG25 main sequence star. It's our patron yellow dwarf to the ultimate fusion reactor. To understand it, we'll be to understand elementary matter. It's turbulent core generates a twisting and looping magnetic field which gives an indication of the movements of the gases beneath the surface, helping us predict sunspots, flares and coronal mass ejections. The sun is so hot it literally boils away its outer layers creating the solar wind. The plasma excites the gases in our thermospere, causing them to release photons. Even at night, we can appreciate what the sun gets us. In the daytime isn't so bad either. We were formed as a byproduct of its creation, but a last despite its venerable glory is a true fountain life. The sun no longer rates as the deity as it has so often in the past. Hey, look kids, it's a run raw. That's still not the right raw. Later, a run. Hey, there's our guy. Okay, tough crowd, let's try this then. Well now we're cooking and by cooking I mean this guy wore the sun on his head. But here's the story. In the beginning there was only the sea of chaos. From it rose them out, the concept of order which manifested itself in the form of raw. The first god, but he was alone and surrounded by chaos. So he summoned other gods and was there king. In his solar boat raw traversed the heavens in triumph over chaos. As chaos receded it manifested into a serpent called Apophis. The god of chaos who hated all creation. By the fifth dynasty raw became the major deity, Egyptian religion. The cult of raw was centered in E.U. New, the place of pillars where he was melded with the local sun god Adam. Raw was also combined with other gods like Osiris and Horus. In fact, they became a veritable trinity. Let's not leave out the ferrous who claim themselves earthly manifestations of raw, or as they like to be called the sun's of raw. Guya, the personification of earth itself was one of the protagenoing. The primordial deities who formed the very fabric of the universe. All the heavenly gods were descended from her unions with the other elemental gods. We were announced her sibling was the literal sky just as she was the literal earth. With her capable of partner genesis they produced 18 deities the old fashioned way by sexual reproduction. Here we have proud guy with two of those titan offspring, Hyperion and his sister Fia. In turn they produced a squadron of titans, not the least of whom was Helios. The titan god of the sun. He lives in a golden palace if the eastern ends of the earth, where he moaches each dawn on a chariot with flaming lignate horses. When he reaches the west he descends into a golden cup that carries him back to his palace. In all depictions he's crowned with the shining oriel of the sun. He's written about by Homer, he's the ad, over, Senaka, Escalus, Hindaran Asim. He is also the Colossus of Rhodes. Remember the Egyptian city of Eugenu? Under Greek rule it is renamed Heliopolis. As the ideas of gods became more fully developed, so too did their representations. Apollos image was the perfect idea of youthful manliness. Even the other Olympians were embarrassed by his beauty. He had a thing for the ladies and the lads. Due to some downsizing and the result of the Hasaltake over the titans, the Olympians multi-tast. Apollos was not only God of the sun, but God of Prophecy, Archer, Music, Poetry, Disease, and Healing. God was the guide in with the sun, in its place a simple laurel league. God were the flaming we at steeds in favor of the familiar forces. In the later period of the Roman Empire, political and religious conditions are slurred over as the period of Roman decades. Into this are injected by simultaneous encroachment of two powerful cults, solar deism, and Christianity. While Christians became persecuted, the cult of the sun God was granted a place in Roman public worship by Emperor Orelian. Enter so invictus, sporting a familiar sunburst crown, he was the personification of the sun and annual rebirth. He had no need of chariot, boat, or other conveyance. Then the Talas-Sola-Sendick-D becomes the official Roman festival of the 25th of December. Christians continued to be persecuted until the year 313. When Emperor Constantine, also known as Saint Constantine, famously proclaimed religious tolerance throughout the empire. Solin-Victus continued to appear alongside the Emperor on Imperial Coins, but this was part of a larger campaign to absorb the solar deists into Christianity. Here's solin-Victus looking a lot like the Christ. Here's the Christ looking a lot like solin-Victus. The result so good it went by unnoticed. In the second millennium BC, the Chinese first recorded a solar eclipse. In the first millennium BC, the bedded literature of India refers to the sun as the center of spheres. In the seventh century, BC, Egyptian astronomers predict a solar eclipse. By 86 BC, ethales of malitis predicts a solar eclipse. Two ADBC E. Arrestarkis of Saint-Mos suggests a heliocentric cosmos when he uses the earth's shadow on the moon to measure the distance from earth to the sun. 28 BC E. The Book of Hon is first to record a sun spot. The year 499 Ayabata suggests a heliocentric universe. 1150, the Catholic Church adopts the telomic geosentric model of the universe. 1514 Copernagus states his heliocentric theory. 1610 Galileo aims a telescope at the heavens and sees a blemished and rotating sun. They also discover its rotation differential at 27 days at its equator and 31 days at the poles. Not quite the perfect creation of God the church envisioned. In the 1850s, Vatican Chief Astronomer, Father Angela Secky, Tyners, the spectroscopy of the sun, confirming Galileo's rendering of an imperfect work of God. 1859 Robert Wilhelm Bunsen and Gustav Robert Kirkov protected spectroscopy and turned it towards the night sky. They recognized the chemical patterns immediately. A great mystery of the heavens had been solved. Our sun was a star. 1862 Father Secky confirms the findings of Bunsen and Kirkov. 1905 Einstein publishes a paper suggesting photons or real. 1962 Mariner II confirms the existence of solar winds. 1973 Skylab aims x-rays at the sun. 1990 spacecraft dulysees explores the sun. 1992 the church lifts its edict of inquisition against Galileo. 1995 the solar and heliosphere Observatory is launched. 1997 the advanced composition explorer is launched. 2010 the solar dynamics observatory is launched. Three years beyond our solar system Voyager's one-and-two continued among our solar winds. In the past 400 years science has pulled back the blinding layers of our sun to reveal a star. An engine of creation, a cosmic mechanism that helps us better understand the universe. So that one day in 5 billion years or so, we're not caught unaware of the inevitable.
