Best Answer

The Chinese astronomers generated fantastically accurate measurements of time and charted unusual cosmological phenomena, such

as novae, comets and meteor showers. This makes their work important to the development of the history of astronomy, and their ideas filtered down the Silk Road into the Middle East and Europe. Ancient Chinese kept records of a wide range of celestial events, including solar and lunar eclipses, sunspots, comets and meteors, guest stars (nova or supernova), planetary events, aurora borealis etc.
