... Mass . ... Following several successful moon landings,NASA decided to use its last Saturn V not to fly to the moon but to place in low Earth orbit a large space station, named Skylab. ... It was followed that year by three manned flights using the smaller Saturn IB, each carrying 3 astronauts for a prolonged stay aboard Skylab. ... Mass measurements aboard Skylab were part of the medical experiments conducted there. ... Measuring body mass in the M172 chair (see illustration) was not a simple matter...

... More on 51 Peg: . The discovery of a Jupiter--mass planet in orbit around the solar--type star 51Peg has been reported by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz (Geneva Observatory) on October 6th at the 9th Cambridge workshop on "cool stars, stellar systems, and the sun" held at Florence (Italy). ... Recall that the measurements of radial velocity only yield v sin i which in turn gives us M sin i. For most values of i, sin i will be greater than 0.5 and this gives a mass estimate of 0.5 Jupiter masses. ...

... In reality, the measured amplitude is always smaller due to atmospheric turbulence and instrumental degradation, thus the amplitude measured on a science target has to be normalized by the amplitude measured on a calibrator. Calibrators are rarely unresolved, and if bright ones are needed, they tend to be big enough to require good estimates of their angular diameter. ...

Eruptive Event with Unusually Fast-Drifting Type II Radio Burst . ... The frequency drift velocity of the latter was about 5 times larger than that of the first type II burst. It is argued that such unusual fast drift of the radio emission was caused by a peculiarity of the accompanied coronal mass ejection (CME): the brightest southeastern sector of the CME front had an inclined, flat shape and propagated on a large angle relative to the radial direction. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Every few months, one of a series of questions comes up on the USENET group sci.astro involving tides, or the rotation of the Moon, or the recession of the Moon from the Earth. ... Why the Moon's rotation period is the same as the length of time it takes to orbit the Earth (same as number 1, but phrased differently). ... But when this happens, the time it takes for the Earth to rotate once will be slowed to exactly the same time it takes for the Moon to go around the Earth once! ...
