[G02-P02] Astronomical environment in which outreach targets are interested and outreach methods utilizing it

*Miyuki Tsuchiya, Mie Enomoto

Keywords:Outreach, Foucault pendulum, Tokyo Disney Sea, Astrology

This paper considers Tokyo Disney Sea as an astronomical environment in which outreach targets are of daily interest, and considers the specific astronomical environment by adding new knowledge, taking into consideration previous research. Next, we will take up Shuichiro Yoshioka's "The Relationship between Astrology and Astronomy, its History"(1943,The Heavens) and consider how astrologyshould be viewed. As an outreach method that takes advantage of the astronomical environment of interest, we propose to hold summits by organizations and organizations with the symbol "Foucault pendulum" currently installed in 59 locations nationwide, including TDS.@Points to keep in mind when using the astronomical environment at TDS for outreach.TDS is a daily source of interest to outreach targets, with an average of about 30 million visitors a year. Previous research by Hiroaki Ying, Reiji Hibara, and Sayaka Nabeshima "Utilizing Artificial Materials in Earth Science Education : A Utilizing Example of Earth Science Materials at TDS" (Education of earth science 61(4)," 133-139, 2008-07-25), Chii Shimomura, Noritsugu Takahashi, "Utilization of Geological Education Materials in TDS" (Research on Space Education, (1), 85-89, 2020-07-07)TDS already has 11 astronomical objects in its main case alone, and it is already well unders been unders been grasped in detail that it is a rich astronomical environment. However, only the fact is pointed out though one of the points pointed out there is a point where not only the earth movement theory but also the astronomical object according to the heavenly movement theory is installed. When using TDS as an outreach method, we propose to actively view it as a material to explain the history of astronomy from the theory of heaven to the earth movement theory. It should also be pointed out accurately to the outreach target that the stoned position of the ground indicating the age of the moon is reversed, even if the reason is not clear. @Shuichiro Yoshioka" The Relationship between Astrology and Astronomy, ItsHistory" (1943, Heaven), astrology as the history of astronomy.Shuichiro Yoshioka is a "relationship between astrology and astronomy, its history" (1943, Tenkai 23(268), In 305-310, 1943-10-25, and 23(269), 344-347, 1943-12-28), astrology born in Babylonia is one with astronomy, and what is born there is also utilized in the system of units and other fundamentals of modern life. Astrology, so to speak, is a living witness to astronomy and embodies the history of astronomy. And in light of modern standards, even if it is unscientific, it is certain that it has been passed down to modern society as a culture related to astronomical texts. In that respect, it is thought that it is near the religion, and it should be calmly caught as the same kind as the annual event of daily such as the new year's visit. @Proposal for holding the " Foucault pendulum " Summit as an Outreach Method As examined in @1 a huge " Foucault pendulum " is installed in TDS along with other astronomical objects. Looking at the number of " Foucault pendulum " currently installed nationwide, there are a total of 59 locations. Therefore, various organizations and organizations that have established this " Foucault pendulum " will set up a network and hold a summit with the symbol " Foucault pendulum ", and propose that it be an opportunity to widely interest in astronomical texts. The content of the summit is not only knowledge of the astronomical text itself, but also the participation of researchers in fields and fields that deal with astronomical events in various forms. Specifically, it assumes areas such as literature, painting, film, architecture, urban planning, calendar, annual events, naming, astrology, religion, politics, etc.
