... With enough velocity, a spacecraft can break loose from the Earth's gravity and enter an orbit around the Sun, like that of a planet. If it then orbits the Sun with the same period as the Earth--one year--it may keep a fixed position relative to Earth. ... If the distance is just right--about 4 times the distance to the Moon or 1/100 the distance to the Sun--the spacecraft, too, will need just one year to go around the Sun, and will keep its position between the Sun and the Earth. ...

... There are two stars in the binary system: a donor star on the right and a black hole on the left (an infinitely small point in the center of a complex figure). ... The wind is ejected as a hollow cone; it has a funnel (the funnel opening angle in the figure) and thick walls (wall opening angle in the figure). The observer looks at the whole system and the supercritical disk from the right, and sees everything up to the wind photosphere (the red color in the figure). ...

... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 Regularity and chaos for planetary orbits in binaries D. Benest Observatoire de Nice, Nice, France 1. ... Previous papers showed that stable planetary orbits, around either the lightest or the heaviest component of several nearby binary systems, exist up to distances from their primary of the order of more than half the binary's periastron sep­ aration. ...

UFO Forum Message . ... Spinning' The Truth About Our Own Moon? ... I have read various articles on the net regarding whether or not our moon spins on it's own axis. Funny thing is, most professional astronomy sites seem to be trying to tell us that it does spin around it's own axis about once for every orbital period. ...

Local and global topology of the CMB anisotropy and polarization elds I. D. Novikov et al. Theoretical Astrophysics Center,Denmark We discuss local and global topology of the anisotropy and polarization elds in connection with the BOOMERANG and MAXIMA-1 observational data. It is shown that the level of cross-correlation between anisotropy and polarization increases  times around -heigh isolated peaks of the anisotropy. ...
