So Much Easier

We have an astronomy test tomorrow so we've been studying. There is list of astronomers we are suppose to know. We have been coming up with key names that will help us remember them and what they did. Here's two of them. Be warned: these make perfect sense to us.

Eratosthenes... ratatouille. Eratosthenes was known for measurements. The right measurements are useful when you're cooking so ratatouille is perfect. And they both have the word rat in them.

Hipparchus. We think of a hippo wearing a cone hat decorated with stars. Hipparchus was known for the 1st star chart and precession (axis makes cone). it makes sense, no?
