Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 Mathematics and Astronomy from Origin to Eighteenth Century -- Chapter 3 Ancient Visions of The Cosmos: Orienting, Classifying and Modeling -- Chapter 4 A Lucky Astral Conjunction -- Chapter 5 The New Vision of The Cosmos -- Chapter 6 The Instruments -- Chapter 7 The First Astronomical Machine: Antikythera -- Chapter 8 Astronomical Machines and Clocks from The Arab Times to The Renaissance -- Chapter 9 Towards Planetary Machines -- Chapter 10 Orreries and Astronomical Clocks -- Chapter 11 France and Switzerland -- Chapter 12 Blossoming in Germany and Austria: The Priestermechaniker -- Chapter 13 Chinese Philosophical and Mathematical Thought -- Chapter 14 Chinese Astronomy and Astronomical Machines -- Chapter 15 Design of a Simple Planetary Machine -- Chapter 16 Conclusion -- A.

This book takes the reader on an exploration of the Cosmos, from Mesopotamia and Egypt to China; it unveils the fascinating development of astronomy and mathematics. After an overview of the origins of these subjects, highlighting the contributions of Greek astronomers, the Arab culture, and Copernicus' solar system model, the book delves into the revolutionary work of Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, and Isaac Newton, leading to a comprehensive understanding of the solar system. Special attention is given to the instruments used by ancient astronomers, including the most important astronomical clocks and planetary machines. In light of this, the author examines Kepler's almost unknown design of a planetary machine and offers an interpretation using virtual reality techniques. The book also highlights the Chinese view of the Cosmos and the evolution of its astronomy and astronomical machines, offering readers a unique perspective and insight into the relationship between astronomy and technology in different cultures. Finally, the author provides a practical approach to understanding the construction and mechanics of astronomical machines, exploring the process of designing and manufacturing a Tellurium. The reading is enriched with short videos of the Tellurium, along with a translation of the description of the planetary machine by Christian Huygens. In addition, it provides a unique glimpse into the religious influences on astronomical studies during the mid-1700s through the translation of Johann Albrecht Bengel's book Cyclus. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science and technology. It appeals to astronomers, mathematicians, physicists, and historians of science and technology alike, providing fascinating descriptions and insightful analysis of the vision of the Cosmos from its earliest conceptions to the present day.
