... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy : The seasons are caused by the change in the distance of the Earth to the Sun. ... The change in distance of the Earth to the Sun is a very minor player. ... Well, not completely wrong; certainly the Earth's distance from the Sun has something to do with the temperature, but it is a relatively minor effect. ... Basically, the temperature depends only weakly on distance changes; the temperature goes as the inverse square root of the distance of the planet to the Sun...

The station is pressurized, the onboard systems perform nominal. ...

. Cosmic rays strike CCD chips during exposures, and most chips are sensitive enough to record the hit as optical тАЬnoiseтАЭ (circled). Most astroimaging software offers an algorithm that will let you easily remove all traces of cosmic-ray hits. Tony Hallas

... After all we cannot send a probe to the star Altair to confirm that it is 17 light years away. ... The "Bessel determined that the star 61 Cygni was about ten light years away" Earth goes around the Sun in one year, so in six month it is in the opposite position in its orbit. ... In 1838 Bessel determined that the star 61 Cygni had a parallax of 0.314 arcseconds and therefore the star was about ten light years away (today the distance is more precisely measured to be 11.4 light years). ...

... The Seasons . ... Section #1 Stargazers and Skywatchers described the observed motion of the Sun across the sky, in different seasons of the year. ... If the Earth's axis were perpendicular to the ecliptic, as in the drawings here, the Sun's position in the sky would be halfway between the celestial poles, and its daily path, seen from any point on Earth, would stay exactly the same, day after day. Each point on Earth would be carried around the axis AB once a day. ... The Sun and Seasons . ...
