What is an Armillary sphere ?

An Armillary sphere is globe made of moveable , concentric rings that depict such things as horizon , meridian , Equator ,tropics and polar circles. The earliest known complete Armillary ks attributed to the Greeks in the early second century AD . Ptolemy created one to promote his geocentric vision of the cosmos . In 1543 , German mathematician Casper Vogel constructed an Armillary sphere that supported Ptolemy's theory . In the same year , Copernicus published his revolutionary treaties placing the sun at the centre of the solar system. 
 Afterward , Ptolemaic and Copernican sphere were exhibited together to display the difference between the two versions of the cosmos.
    

Vogels 1543 Armillary placed Earth in the centre of many planetary orbits .

The scope of Geography Geography : From the Greek geo , Earth ,+ graphic , write about or describe . The systematic study of the physical Earth and it's human population - where things are and how they got there . The field is divided into two major areas : physical geography and human geography. Today Geography is rooted in location , but it involves more than the position of place - names on the map . It Integrates methods and knowledge from many different disciplines and encompasses both the physical and the social science . It links all these disciplines to determine why things happen in a particular location or according to particular spatial patterns .              Physical geography incorporates geology , climatology , biology , ecology , hydrogeology and other natural sciences. Human geography includes cultural anthropology , economics , political science , history , demography and other social science . Cartography , which is the art and science of

How map was made ?? The world in maps                 Think of how hard it is to peel an orange and press the resulting pieces of peel down flat on a table . That analogy represents the challenge faced by the mapmaker , who attempts to turn the spherical planet Earth into a flat visual representation. To tackle the challenge -- getting the surface of a sphere to lie flat cartographers use shape that lend themselves to flattening , such as planes , cones , and cylinders , known as developable surfaces .           By applying mathematical calculation to the developable surfaces, they can transform Earth's features into flat form's. Those forms are called projections and they rep the cha of mapmaking through the centuries.                Projections inevitable results in distortions . Those  distortions can be controlled to some de by the choice of map shape , which depends on which part of the planet is of most interest to the cartographer .
