... Magnetic field lines similarly describe the structure of magnetic fields in three dimensions.They are defined as follows. If at any point on such a line we place an ideal compass needle, free to turn in any direction (unlike the usual compass needle, which stays horizontal) then the needle will always point along the field line (drawing below). Field lines converge where the magnetic force is strong , and spread out where it is weak. ... Exploration" home page (index) Glossary . ...

The azimuth has an encoder on each side of the encoder rack gear. encoder 1 is on the dome side and is used for pointing the telescope. encoder 2 is on the ch side and is used to measure the bending of the azimuth arm. A reference scribe mark has been placed at 270 degrees on the ring girder. ... The correct position for the pointer on the reference mark is whereever it was when the last pointing model was made. ... az encoder error . ... new encoder in position (.jpg) .3 mm left of center mark . ...

THE 1999 PROJECT . The 1999 Martian Mission project is a further development of the 1988 project. It uses the results of design, research and testing activities that took place at RSC Energia since 1988. As compared with the previous project, changes were introduced into solar array panels which became modular, into lander shape where lifting body was replaced with a "discus", and into the number of the landers, with two landers - a manned lander and a logistics lander - instead of one. ...

... 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. ...

The Archeops experiment aimed at measuring the cosmic background emitted just after the Big Bang. The study of this radiation is essential to obtain precise information on the evolution of the Universe: density, Hubble constant, age of the Universe.. To achieve this goal, measurements have been done with devices cooled down at 100mK temperature placed at the focus of a warm telescope. ... 28960 visitors . ...
