... Moon Phase below . ... ARTICLE: Why the moon always shows us the same face . ... Before you continue reading, you should know that this was not always the case, i.e. the Moon once was rotating with respect to the Earth, so that on every night a terrestrial observer (if there was one, because this was long, long before mankind appeared on our planet, and even before any major animals had appeared) saw another face of the Moon. ... Figure 1 (not to scale) shows how we can imagine the system Earth-Moon...

Астрономия и Космос Небесные тела Планеты и их спутники . Видимым парадом планет называется планетная конфигурация, когда пять ярких планет Солнечной системы (Меркурий, Венера, Марс, Юпитер и Сатурн) в своем движении по небосводу подходят друг к другу на близкое расстояние и становятся видны в одно время в небольшом секторе (10 - 40 градусов) неба. ... Из выше описанного видно, что парад планет можно наблюдать, либо вечером, либо утром. ... Не пропустите ОСЕННИЙ ПАРАД планет 2002 года! ...

... The MIDAS Data Organizer, a customizable utility to analyze and identify associations in a database of astronomical observations, is described. ... On-line Data Reduction: . ... The main characteristics of the on-line implementation of the DO at the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT) are described below. The database for all operations is a MIDAS (ESO-IPG 1993) table, the so-called Observation Summary Table (OST) which contains all relevant parameters extracted from the FITS keywords. ...

We cannot observe the way the distant universe accelerates cosmic rays or produces energetic photons, but acceleration processes also occur on our Sun , though on a much more moderate scale. ... That is why such events are often missed by cosmic ray detectors near the equator, where the lowest energies are excluded by the Earth's magnetic field. The best detectors for observing solar particles are therefore those sensitive to the lowest energies of the cosmic radiation. ...

... Unlike the rest of this web collection, this is a somewhat personal account , concerning the current state and future plans of magnetospheric research. Magnetospheric physics was the first major scientific area opened up by artificial Earth satellites. ... Missions are few, and not enough bright young minds are joining this research effort. ... In the existing line-up of proposed future missions, only one will be examined here--a " constellation " consisting of a large number of small satellites. ...
