... The picture shows a 2-dimensional sketch of the outflowing wind of a quasar (Elvis 2000, Astrophysical Journal , vol.545, p.63-76). In the funnel-shaped disk wind Elvis (2000) model a wind arises from a restricted range of radii on the accretion disk around the central black hole. Initially the wind makes a large angle to the disk plane (and so is roughly cylindrical). ... Looking through the quasi-cylindrical part of the wind we see UV and X-ray warm absorbers. ...
... Our Galaxy . ... Stars . ... We all love bright and showy spiral galaxies! So much so, that we tend to overlook the elliptical galaxies which make up about 30% of the galaxies out there. Smaller than spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies may be full of stellar living fossils, surviving virtually unchanged from an older cosmic era. ... Elliptical galaxies are smaller than spiral galaxies, roughly spherical and full of old stars. ... We know that galaxies interact and even collide. ...
... In summer 1994, the biggest news in astronomy was the collision of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter. During this school year, Jupiter will charge back into the limelight with the arrival of the Galileo spacecraft (see figure 8 ). On Dec. 7, following a tortuous six-year ramble through the solar system, Galileo will begin its two-year mission studying Jupiter and its gaggle of moons. ... Besides the camera, Galileo will carry instruments capable of identifying minerals on Jupiter's moons. ...

This page is devoted to information on Supernova 1999X in CGCG 180-22 . Basic information on this SN, including the last reported brightness, on this Supernova can be found on the main supernova page. Information on the original web pages for many of these images can be found on the Supernova links web page. Supernova 1999X was discovered Mike Schwartz and was farily bright, considering that this is a non NGC/IC or UGC galaxy. ... Jean Marie Llapasset has a 1999X web page . ... CCD . ...
... He made observations of a supernova (literally: nova= "new star") in 1572 (we now know that a supernova is an exploding star, not a new star). ... Brahe's meticulous observations showed that the supernova did not change positions with respect to the other stars (no parallax). ... This was early evidence against the immutable nature of the heavens, although Brahe did not interpret the absence of parallax for stars correctly, as we discuss below. Brahe made careful observations of a comet in 1577. ...
