Answer:
The Surya Siddhanta is the name of a Sanskrit treatise in Indian astronomy from the late 4th-century or early 5th-century CE.[1][3] The text survives in several versions, was cited and extensively quoted in a 6th-century CE text by Varahamihira, was likely revised for several centuries under the same title.[4][3] It has fourteen chapters.[5] A 12th-century manuscript of the text was translated into English by Burgess in 1860.[2]
The Surya Siddhanta describes rules to calculate the motions of various planets and the moon relative to various constellations, diameters of various planets, and calculates the orbits of various astronomical bodies.[6][7] The text asserts, according to Markanday and Srivatsava, that the earth is of a spherical shape.[5] It treats earth as stationary globe around which sun orbits, and makes no mention of Uranus, Neptune or Pluto.[8] It calculates the earth's diameter to be 8,000 miles (modern: 7,928 miles), diameter of moon as 2,400 miles (actual ~2,160) and the distance between moon and earth to be 258,000 miles (actual ~238,000).[6] The text is known for some of earliest known discussion of sexagesimal fractions and trigonometric functions.[1][3][9]
The Surya Siddhanta is one of the several astronomy-related Hindu texts. It represents a functional system that made reasonably accurate predictions.[10][11][12] The text was influential on the solar year computations of the luni-solar Hindu calendar.[13]
