... The author of the cover picture is Vasilisa Verkhodanova. The picture symbolizes our perception of the world. The modified emblem of the SAO unifying the 6-m optical telescope and the raditelescope RATAN-600 of SAO RAS is placed in the center of the radio galaxy isophotes. From the one hand, we can investigate the properties of radio galaxies with these (and other) telescopes, and try to study physical processes providing their activity. ...

. Suppose the system fails while you are editing a file! You can recover the file when you next log on to the system again by using the -r option to the vi command. For example: vi -r help.xdh . This restores the vi buffer for the file help.xdh to exactly the state it was in immediately before the system failed. You can continue to edit the file or write the contents of the buffer to the file.
