... The forcing by the solar wind is able to modify this field, creating a cavity called the magnetosphere. ... The outer boundary of the magnetosphere is called the magnetopause . In front of the dayside magnetopause another boundary called the bow shock is formed because the solar wind is supersonic. ... Solar wind and the magnetic field it carries along ( IMF ) modify the form of the magnetosphere, by pushing it in in the dayside and creating a long magnetotail in the nightside. ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

... This image shows clearly the 3-D structure of this star formation region: a large cavity, created by the radiation pressure from new-born stars located in the brightest area of the image, lies within a huge cloud of dust and gas. Identified as a truly indepedent star cluster, NGC 1980 is associated with this well-studied star formation region, around the brightest star seen at the bottom of this image, Iota Ori. ...

... In spite of the lack of rich clusters around us and the presence of large volumes completely free from galaxies (voids), the mean luminosity densities and the mean density of hydrogen mass in the Local Universe is one and a half - twice as high as their mean global values. However, the mean local density of the baryon mass is only 2% of the critical density of the Universe, which is twice as less as the baryon density from the nucleosynthesis data (local paradox of the baryon mass). ...
