Summary
The first documented records of systematic astronomical observations data back to the Assyro-Babylonians around 1000BCE. If you don’t take into account celestial tomes. Then you’re going back 6000 years. The Greeks, of course, were very clever and knew the Earth was the centre of the universe, without the need to step foot off-planet. Later, they knew that actually the Sun is more distant than our Moon, and that perceived brightness tells us this. With the right calculator and a couple of other factors, it can also tell us its age. Or how close it is to dying.

Summary
On the white piece of paper was a smattering of small, black dots. McCoy turned the paper, in search of a pattern or alignment of some kind but not finding even a trace. The dots appeared to be drawn at random or rather, McCoy noticed as he squinted, printed. He looked up at where Spock was standing over him and returned a cocked eyebrow of his own.
“If you need help cracking some kind of code, this isn’t exactly my specialty, genius.”
Rather than banter back, Spock responded immediately and smoothly. “It is not a code. That is the alignment of stars that would have been visible in the night sky from Earth should one have been standing at the coordinates where my Mother was born at the moment of the occurrence.” Silence blanketed the room, McCoy not having a goddamn clue how to respond to that. Luckily, Spock wasn’t finished.
“I wish to memorialize her with what most races would call a tattoo, and I would like your help with the matter.”
