An ancient Chinese theory of the universe. According to the "Book of Jin astronomical" records: "Days like cover don his words, the law of cover plate, each high outside world under the Arctic is among the world under its highest ground, while rushing Duo four , Sanko implicit mapping. , that day and night. days where the outside is higher than the balance of the winter solstice, six miles. Arctic Shimoji value higher than outside Shimoji also six miles, above the Arctic outer scale Shimoji two miles. heaven Long Takaso from eight days to go to Hang Miles. " According to this cosmic pattern, the sky is a dome, is a domed earth, just as ball dome, two dome spacing is eight miles. The Arctic is central "cover winding up" like the sky, the endless rotation around the sun and moon and stars. Celestial dome believe that the moon and stars come and go, not really haunted, but just stay away out of sight, close it, and I see them shine. According to the Eastern Han Dynasty scholar Wang Chong explained: "This test allows one person to large Juhuo, Night on the plains, to the person in ten, fire destroy men; non destroy it, much dictates ear today, June West to no longer see, the fire is out and the like also. . " Celestial dome structure theory seeks to explain the universe orbit the sun, holding this theory to design a seven-balance six figure, the figure has seven concentric circles. Annual winter solstice, the sun along the outside of a circle, the "outer scale" operation, so the sun is not out of the southeast in the southwest, the lowest altitude Japan; annual summer solstice, the sun along the inside of a circle, or "homeostatic" Run Therefore, the sun is not out of the northeast in the northwest, the highest altitude Japan; spring and autumnal equinox when the sun along which a circle, that "in the balance" to run, so the sun is not out in the east due west, while Japan moderate altitude. Seasonal sun are different along different "value" campaign. This seven figure is trying to balance six quantitatively expressed celestial dome cosmic system, _set_ out in the Han Zhao Shuang note "Zhou Bi Suan Jing." Therefore, celestial dome known as Zhou Bi said. And "Book of Jin Astronomy Chi "also contains:" Zhou Bi home cloud: celestial dome contained 'Day member (circle) as sheets cover areas such as chess,' "which" Zhou Bi Suan Jing "in different, in fact, than the ancient The hemispherical dome said. Chinese historians of science such as money Baocong believe that this is the first celestial dome, and "Zhou Bi Suan Jing" contained, it is the second celestial dome. Northern and Southern Dynasties Zu Geng of "astronomical record," said: "The celestial dome is said, there are three bodies: the sky like a car cover, swim among almost octupole; shaped like a sky Mikasa, the central high and lower sides; Skylight as an interjection car cover, under the south than in the north. " Thus, the celestial dome structure of the universe theory says there are different schools of thought, may be different in different directions era of development. In general it can be said, celestial dome formed in the beginning of the week, and to the "Zhou Bi Suan Jing" writing era, namely the first century BC, has formed a complete, quantitative system. It reflects the awareness phase structure of the universe, in describing the apparent motion of celestial bodies also have some historical significance.

Gaitian said to be one of the earliest ancient Chinese theory of cosmic structure. This doctrine, the sky is round, like an open umbrella covering the ground, and earth is square, like a chessboard, moon and stars as the past is like reptile sky, so this theory is also known as "Tianyuandefang said." According to the "Book of Jin astronomical" records: "Days like cover don his words, the law of cover plate, each high outside world under the Arctic is among the world under its highest ground, while rushing Duo four , Sanko implicit mapping. , that day and night. days where the outside is higher than the balance of the winter solstice, six miles. Arctic Shimoji value higher than outside Shimoji also six miles, above the Arctic outer scale Shimoji two miles. heaven Long Takaso from eight days to go to Hang Miles.

The Arctic is central "cover winding up" like the sky, the endless rotation around the sun and moon and stars.

Therefore, celestial dome known as Zhou Bi said. And "Book of Jin astronomical records," also contains: "Zhou Bi home says: 'Days member (circle) as sheets cover areas such as chess,'" said the celestial dome which contained "Zhou Bi Suan Jing" in different actually representing ancient Tianyuandifang said. Chinese historians of science such as money Baocong believe that this is the first celestial dome, and "Zhou Bi Suan Jing" contained, it is the second celestial dome. Northern and Southern Dynasties Zu Geng of "astronomical record," said: "The celestial dome is said, there are three bodies: the sky like a car cover, swim among almost octupole; shaped like a sky Mikasa, the central high and lower sides; Skylight as an interjection car cover, under the south than in the north.

It reflects the awareness phase structure of the universe, in describing the apparent motion of celestial bodies also have some historical significance. Chinese culture scholar Nie Wentao believes that the full celestial dome, well before the "Yellow Emperor" mature already exists. "Out of the northwest sky", "to dissatisfaction Southwest", which comes from "Q" is originated in the "heavens northwest, southeast subsidence," the celestial dome. In the "Yellow Emperor" ripe, but has become more scientific geocentric, this is the celestial globe said. It should be said, according to Mr. Nie Wentao's research more. Because huntian say clearly appears after celestial dome, a well-known scientist Zhang Heng Han said that representatives celestial globe, which than the "Book of Jin" early.
