NASA denies it is changing Zodiacal signs

New York: Refuting claims that it is updating a astrological signs, NASA has pronounced that it did not do it as a space group studies astronomy not astrology.
“We did not change any Zodiac signs, we only did a math. The Space Place (an educational page for kids run by NASA) essay was about how astrology is not astronomy, how it was a vestige of ancient story and forked out a scholarship and math that did come from observations of a night sky,” NASA orator Dwayne Brown told Gizmodo.
Last week a news widespread that 86 per cent of a people now have a opposite star pointer as NASA had motionless to refurbish a astrological signs for a initial time in 2,000 years.
In NASA’s educational page for children called Space Place, a group discussed how, some 3,000 years ago, a ancient Babylonians were penetrating sky-watchers and suspicion that a changing positions of constellations via a year could be related to certain behaviours or events on Earth.
As a outcome of this, those sky-watchers invented a zodiac.
“So, as Earth orbits a Sun, a Sun would seem to pass by any of a 12 tools of a zodiac. Since a Babylonians already had a 12-month calendar (based on a phases of a Moon), any month got a cut of a zodiac all to itself,” Science Alert reported on Monday citing a essay in Space Place.
But saying as this happened 3,000 years ago, things were a bit arbitrary, and for whatever reason, a Babylonians left a constellation out of their zodiac — Ophiuchus, a news said.
“Even then, some of a selected 12 did not fit orderly into their reserved cut of a cake and slopped over into a subsequent one,” Space Place noted, adding, “To make a neat compare with their 12-month calendar, a Babylonians abandoned a fact that a Sun indeed moves by 13 constellations, not 12.”
NASA pronounced that due to a little stagger in a Earth’s axis, a position of those constellations has shifted. This means that those constellations are no longer in a same spots currently as they were when a ancient Babylonians were looking up.
But that has zero to do with change of zodiac signs.
