TIMUR (TAMERLANE), THE IRON LIMPER
Asia has long been the birthplace of would-be conquerors of the world. One of the greatest of these was a man who commanded both fear and awe in Asia and Europe during the fourteenth century: Tamerlane. This name, by which he was known in Europe, is actually a corruption of his name in Persian, Timur-i-Leng, meaning "Timur the Lame." The word Timur is Turkic for "iron": it was an appropriate name for the man who, in his lifetime, rose from being a prince in a small Turko-Mongol tribe to become the ruler of an expanding empire that stretched from Delhi to Anatolia. His life was, in the words of one modern scholar, "one long story of war, butchery and brutality unsurpassed until the present century." Timur was born in Kesh, also known as Shahr-i-Sabz, "The Green City" (located about fifty miles south of Samarkand) in 1336. He was the son of a chief in the Barlas tribe, one of the many Mongol tribes which had made up the hordes of Chingiz Khan (1162 -1227) and which had been subsequently Turkicised as a result of the strong Turkic element in the Mongol armies. Upon the death of the great Khan in 1227, his massive empire was divided up amongst his sons, each of whom received an allotment of territory, called an ulus . The Khan's second son, Chagatay (d.1242), received the territories then known as Transoxiana ("The Land Across the Oxus") and Moghulistan (present-day Semirechye and Sinkiang). Along with other Turko-Mongol tribes, the Barlas settled in Transoxiana, between the two major rivers in the region: the Oxus (Amu Darya) and the Jaxartes (Syr Darya).

Ulugh Beg
The grandson of the conqueror Timur the Lame (1336 - 1405) and the oldest son of Shah Rukh both of whom came from the Turkic Barlas tribe of Transoxiana (present Uzbekistan) Ulugh Beg was born in Sultaniyya in modern-day Iran. As a child he wandered through a substantial chunk of the Middle East and India as his grandfather expanded his conquests in those areas. With Timur's death however and the accession of Ulugh's father to much of the Timurid Empire he settled in Samarkand which had been Timur's capital. After Shah Rukh moved the capital to Herat (in modern Afghanistan) sixteen year-old Ulugh Beg became the shah's governor in Samarkand in 1409. In 1411 he became a sovereign of the whole Mavarannhar khanate.
The teenaged ruler set out to turn the city into an intellectual center for the empire. In 1417 - 1420 he built a madrasa ("university" or "institute") on Rigestan Square in Samarkand and invited numerous Islamic astronomers and mathematicians to study there. Ulugh Beg's most famous pupil in mathematics was Ghiyath al-Kashi (circa 1370 - 1429).
In 1437 Ulugh Beg determined the length of the sidereal year as 365.2570370...d = 365d 6h 10m 8s (an error +58s). In his measurements within many years he used a 50 m high gnomon. This value was improved by 28s 88 years later in 1525 by Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543) who appealed to the estimation of Thabit ibn Qurra (826-901) which was accurate to +2s.

Short Fiction With the pounding bass of "Paninero," Ulugh Beg glided though the club, effortlessly parting the crowd. More than a few of the dancers were openly admiring of his exotic looks which was intriguingly complemented by his Victorian dress. Crossing the floor to a dark, secluded table, Ulugh's piercing gaze detected the hideously warped Nosferatu lurking in the shadows. At last. After much searching, another piece of lore was about to be reclaimed for his master. The Nosferatu licked what remained of its lips with its long, scabarous tongue. Its right eye lolled horrifically in its socket, a sight so grotesque that it would have caused a lesser being to flinch. "Do you have the text," Ulugh queried? Reaching slowly toward a pocket, the Nosferatu hissed in the affirmative. "However, first, my price...I require information on the Council of Seven."

The visitor might be forgiven for thinking he had strayed into an exhibition of avant-garde sculpture, although these futuristic shapes have a solidity and a clean, functional beauty foreign to most contemporary art. This a jantar mantar, or astronomical observatory. The structures are gigantic instruments for calculating the positions of heavenly bodies. It was built in 1724 by Jai Singh, Maharaja of Jaipur, at the request of the Moghul emperor Muhammad Shah. Jai Singh was born in 1688, a year after the publication of Newton's Principia

Ask the Scholar ... Introducing Islam Observatories in Islamic History By Khalid Azab
Translated from Arabic by Imad Al-Ayoubi
Astronomy practiced in ancient civilizations was associated with astrology and fortune telling. This association cast shades of doubt on the practice in the minds of early Muslims. However, with the establishment of the Islamic civilization, which rejected astrology and fortune telling as contradictory to Islamic beliefs, astronomy was separated and recognized as a discipline based on scientific principles. This separation was not accidental: it was based on scientific experiments, analogy and deduction, which Muslims applied in order to meet their need for determining the qiblah (direction of Mecca) and prayer times. All major mosques accordingly appointed astronomers, who used instruments invented by Muslims. In ancient civilizations, astronomy was shrouded in mystery, but during the Abbasid period, particularly during the caliphate of Haroon Ar-Rashid, this science gained a special status; this period witnessed the unprecedented construction of large observatories with permanent structures that housed huge, carefully crafted instruments. A sizable number of astronomers were associated with these observatories, which were looked after by the state.

Ghiyath al-Din Jamshid Mas'ud al-Kashi
Kashi was an Iranian mathematician and astronomer
Born: about 1380 in Kashan, Iran
Died: 22 June 1429 in Samarkand, Transoxania (now Uzbek)
Details of Jamshid al-Kashi 's life and works are better known than many others from this period although details of his life are sketchy. One of the reasons we is that he dated many of his works with the exact date on which they were completed, another reason is that a number of letters which he wrote to his father have survived and give fascinating information. Al-Kashi was born in Kashan which lies in a desert at the eastern foot of the Central Iranian Range. At the time that al-Kashi was growing up Timur (often known as Tamburlaine) was conquering large regions. He had proclaimed himself sovereign and restorer of the Mongol empire at Samarkand in 1370 and, in 1383, Timur began his conquests in Persia with the capture of Herat. Timur died in 1405 and his empire was divided between his two sons, one of whom was Shah Rokh. While Timur was undertaking his military campaigns, conditions were very difficult with widespread poverty. al-Kashi lived in poverty, like so many others at this time, and devoted himself to astronomy and mathematics while moving from town to town. Conditions improved markedly when Shah Rokh took over after his father's death. He brought economic prosperity to the region and strongly supported artistic and intellectual life. With the changing atmosphere, al-Kashi's life also improved markedly. The first event in al-Kashi's life which we can date accurately is his observation of an eclipse of the moon which he made in Kashan on 2 June 1406.

================================================================= MAIDANAK OBSERVATORY Altitude=2600m Lat:38D 41'N, Long.: 66D 55' E Maunt Maidanak is located at a distance of 40 km south of the town of Kitab where the International Latitude Station is situated. It is an isolated summit belonging to the Pamir and Alai mountain system. Both in relief and vegetation the landscape of Maidanak is typical for high-mountain dry suptropics, bushes being prevailing. The relief is mainly smoothed and rock outcrops do not prevent from building. The road built together with the observatory just leads to Maidanak. The total distance between Kitab and Maidanak is 150 km long. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND. Mount Maidanak was selected as a result of ten-years site servings made by the Ulugh Beg Astronomical Institute of the Uzbek Academy of Sciences and Sternberg Astronomical Institute. By the early 90-ies many astronomical institutions of the Former Soviet Union built their observatories there. About ten telescopes with appertures from 0.5 to 1 m were installed. According to the Bishkek Agreement between independent states of the FSU dated on 1992 Uzbekistan took under its jurisdiction all these observatories and then assigned them to the Ulugh Beg Astronomical Institute of the Uzbek Academy of Science. Today we are working at Maidanak under the agreement between Uzbekistan and Russian, Ukrainean and Lathuanian astronomical institutions. The inter-government agreement to create the International Maidanak observatory is now in progress. INFRASTRUCTURE. A hotel and additional living rooms at the telescopes, a mechanical workshop, telephone and e-mail service at Maidanak are available. The urban observatory's base is located in Kitab where we have a hotel, e-mail, FAX and telephone communications, as well as a transport service to convey both observers and heavy equipment to Maidanak. WEATHER. In summer the average nightly temperature is +12 C. In winter it falls to -15 C. The temperature night-time amplitude is about 5 C. Winds are faint, their velocity not exceeding 2-3 m/c. SEEING. Clear night time annual amount estimated by some authors varies from 1900 to 2000 hours. The month distribution shows the August - September period to be the most favourable, the clear night-time amount approaching 100 percent of the possible one. A local peak in Febriary is noted very often. It is important to note that there are no light pollution sources in Maidanak environs. Maidanak seeing conditions were persistently studied. However, the different author's estimates differ widely. According to Shcheglov's group the seeing is better than 0.8 arcsec in 50% cases. SOME RESULTS. The observational programmes carried out on Mt.Maidanak have been resulted in the following data: ROTOR programme. About 65000 UBVR observation were made of non-stationary stars on the early stage of the stellar evolution (Ae/Be Herbig and T Tau stars, fuors and relative stars). (Ulugh Beg Institute). 40000 UBVR observations of 150 Cepheids were made (Sternberg Institute). Light curves with dense sampling for 50 close binary systems were obtained. (Ulugh Beg Institute). Ground observations of X-ray sources simultaneous with space ones were made, as well. (Ulugh Beg Institute and IKI). Today the monitoring of unique astronomical objects is very actual. For this kind of problems the longitude of Maidanak is of great importance. The western and eastern sites with comparable clear night-time are located in five-six hours of the longitude. Solar physics specialists have already realized these advantages. IRIS and TON projects for Solar oscillation measurements are good examples of that. ======================================================================= Dr.Shuhrat EHGAMBERDIEV !
