The constellation hercules, named after an ancient greek mythical hero. Page from a 1430 copy of the book of fixed stars, an astronomy book written by a tenth-century muslim scientist

Respuesta :

An artwork from The Book of Fixed Stars is seen in the figure.

A man is depicted in the drawing holding a sickle with his left hand and extending his right arm forth. The person is hunched over on his left knee, and above him is inscribed in Arabic calligraphy. There are dots all throughout the artwork with Arabic text that identify specific stars and their brightness as observed by Muslim astronomers.

The monarch of the Turkic Timurid dynasty, which ruled over a large portion of Central Asia in the fifteenth century, received this copy of The Book of Fixed Stars. Individual stars are represented by the dots spread throughout the picture, and the symbols next to the dots denote the stars' varying luminosities,  as observed by Muslim astronomers.

The greatest evidence that intellectual activities in the Muslim world persisted in the era between 1200 and 1450, despite the dissolution of the Abbasid Caliphate, is the sponsorship of scholarship by Turkic dynasties, such as the Timurids.
