... RVSAO 2.0 is the latest release of a package for calculating apparent radial velocities of celestial objects from observed spectral shifts. ... XCSAO cross-correlates the Fourier transform of an object's spectrum against the transforms of a set of template spectra with known spectral shifts to obtain a velocity and error. ... Full documentation of this software, including numerous examples of its use, is on-line at http://tdc-www.harvard.edu/iraf/rvsao/ . ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better. The definition of when the seasons begin is at the moment of solstice or equinox; that is, winter (in the north) starts on December 22 nd and summer starts on June 22 nd . ... Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...
