China Meteorological Observatory and Observatory were first merged together. For example, Qingdao Observatory and Hong Kong Observatory used to make weather forecasts, and they are very closely related. Meteorology studies natural phenomena in the atmosphere, such as wind, frost, snow and rain, lightning and thunder. Astronomy, on the other hand, takes celestial bodies as the research object and is closely related to our earth. For example, changes in the sun and the moon can directly affect the earth's atmosphere. The infinite universe, stars and our earth actually have a subtle and close relationship.
Let's talk about the influence of meteorology on astronomy. First of all, astronomical observation on the ground is inseparable from good meteorological conditions. Meteorologists have something to do regardless of wind and rain. A cloudy day almost made astronomers lose their jobs. In order to choose an ideal observatory site, astronomers spend as much energy as looking for a lifelong partner, and their main consideration is meteorological conditions. Of course, the development of space telescopes and non-optical telescopes and the establishment of the future lunar base can free astronomers from the constraints of meteorological conditions. On the other hand, global climate and long-term earth climate change can also be used as the test basis for some astronomical theories. For example, some theories about the relationship between the sun and the earth are often verified by meteorological data.
Meteorology also needs the support of astronomy. The application of space high-tech such as satellite and remote sensing makes modern meteorology even more powerful. In order to better study the earth meteorology, meteorologists turned their attention to space: the greenhouse effect of Venus and the sandstorm of Mars. The El Nino phenomenon that plagues the whole world may be caused by astronomical factors. Although the recent solar storm doesn't know what impact it will have on our climate, experts have said that sunspot activity and flare explosion in the storm will definitely affect our atmosphere, so there is a close relationship between meteorology and astronomy.
