NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office . ... This paper briefly presents the history, interactions and current activities of NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office. The Program Office utilizes near-Earth object (NEO) astrometric data from the international community, received from the Minor Planet Center, to refine orbits and provide predictions for coming Earth close approaches. ... Recent studies of some of the issues surrounding the deflection of an Earth threatening NEO are also described. ...

... В этой работе дается обзор современного состояния теории и наблюдений одиночных нейтронных звезд. ... Here we review present state of theoretical and observational exploration of isolated neutron stars. ... We review basic physical processes connected with evolution of isolated neutron stars: cooling; magnetic field decay; period evolution; magnetospheric processes, accretion. We discuss evolution and population synthesis calculations of isolated neutron stars of different types. ...

... Indeed, one alteration of orbits can be the outright ejection of a planet. When several big planets are orbiting a star under each other's influence, the system is inherently unstable. ...
