Astronomical Calculation

Astronomical calculation involves using mathematical formulas and observations to determine the positions, movements, and timings of celestial objects like stars, planets, and moons. By applying principles of physics and geometry—such as understanding orbits, light travel time, and celestial angles—astronomers predict where an object will be at a specific time or when certain events, like eclipses or transits, will occur. These calculations help us navigate, plan observations, and understand the universe's structure and motion across space and time.
