WHAT DOES APPULSE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

appulse

Appulse

Appulse is an astronomical term that refers to the closest approach of one celestial object to another, as seen from a third body. Usually it refers to the close approach of two planets together in the sky, or of the Moon to a star or planet as the Moon follows its monthly orbit around Earth, as seen by an observer located on Earth. An appulse is related to a conjunction but the definitions differ in detail. Whereas an appulse occurs when the separation between two bodies is at its minimum, a conjunction occurs at the instant when the two bodies have the same right ascension or the same ecliptic longitude. In general, the precise time of an appulse will be different from that of a conjunction. It is possible in some particular cases for an appulse to occur but no conjunction. Where the celestial bodies come so close together that one actually passes over the other, the event is known as an occultation. An appulse is an apparent phenomenon caused by perspective only: there is no close physical approach in space between the two objects involved and scientists insist that appulses have no direct effect on the Earth.

Definition of appulse in the English dictionary

The definition of appulse in the dictionary is a very close approach of two celestial bodies so that they are in conjunction but no eclipse or occultation occurs.
