... Asteroid . ... In case you didn't hear about it, which you probably didn't: On Jan. 7, an asteroid 1,000 feet across -- nearly three times the current diameter of Marlon Brando -- barely missed the Earth, which is most likely your planet of residence. ... What if this asteroid had hit the Earth? ... As it happens, the American Astronomical Society was holding a conference in Washington AT THE VERY SAME TIME as the asteroid nearly hit the Earth. ...

... 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. ...

... A faint, dusty rose of the northern sky, emission nebula IC 410 lies about 12,000 light-years away in the constellation Auriga. The cloud of glowing hydrogen gas is over 100 light-years across, sculpted by stellar winds and radiation from embedded open star cluster NGC 1893. ... These "tadpoles" (seen just below center) are regions of denser, cooler gas, and more slowly resist the erosive radiation from the hot stars. ...

... For the past years I have been working on the problem of synthesis of light curves of close binary systems, consisting of a normal star and a compact object (point object with fixed X-ray luminosity). ... Possible existence of a bright spot on the disk's lateral surface is taken into account. ... The last of then will be published in Gordon and Breach Publishers ( Cherepashchuk A.M., Katysheva N.A., Khruzina T.S., Shugarov S.Yu. ... Cherepashchuk A.M., Katysheva N.A., Khruzina T.S., Shugarov S.Yu. ...

... We report on our ongoing project ``Infrared Study of HII Regions Associated with Small Clouds.' ... These IR data, combined with optical imaging (which will be obtained from the IAC-80 telescope), IRAS survey maps, and existing CO observations of the associated clouds, will allow us to undertake a detailed investigation of the gas-to-dust mass ratio, initial mass function and the star-formation efficiency in these complexes. ... CHECKPSF: check the PSF (Point Spread Function) model, . ...

of the RadioAstron Teleconference 4 . ... The agenda of the teleconference and the list of participants are attached as an Appendix A to the Minutes. The main intents of the teleconference were to discuss the results of Pushchino tests, to develop actions in order to overcome the problem of aging of 6-cm and 18-cm receivers and to understand situation with NASA support for the project. ... Andreyanov informed the participants about the procedure and main results of Pushchino tests. ...

In this gallery are many images of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies which have recently been discovered and analyzed. ... The central surface brightness of this galaxy is 24.28 . Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ... Truly it is a Low Surface Brightness Galaxy. ...

The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) . Hot stars burn brightly in this image from NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer, showing the ultraviolet side of a familiar face. At approximately 2.5 million light-years away, the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is our Milky Way's largest galactic neighbor. ... The bands of blue-white making up the galaxy's striking rings are neighborhoods that harbor hot, young, massive stars. ... When observed in visible light, Andromeda s rings look more like spiral arms. ...

Milky Way X-ray background emission « »: , . ... RXTE , . ... Using near-infrared Galaxy intensity measured with COBE/DIRBE experiment and X-ray data from RXTE and INTEGRAL it was shown that X-ray brightness of the Galactic background emission closely follows its stellar density and can be explained by a cumulative emission of a large number of weak Galactic X-ray sources. ... Map of Galactic background emission in hard X-ray energy band obtained with INTEGRAL observatory. ... 2006, &, 452, 169 ., ...

... Last year Russian Academy of Sciences and Roscosmos proposed to include the Lander for investigation of the Jupiter Moon Europa as an additional element of EJSM/Laplace international mission to Jupiter system. The main scientific objectives of this element will be a search of possible present and past signatures of life and ‘in situ’ studies of the environment by remote and contact methods. ... Synergy between Lander and EJSM/LAPLACE mission spacecraft (including possible joint experiments). ...

Next: Caverns in Binary Systems Up: Ejectors in Massive Binary Previous: The Number of Ejectors . In the very first years after the discovery of radiopulsars, it became clear that for some reason they avoid forming binary systems. ... Illarionov and Sunyaev (1975)[ 76 ] noted the fact that coherent radiowaves with a wavelength longer than 75 cm, which make it possible to observe most of the radiopulsars, are absorbed effectively in the stellar wind of a normal star. ...
