... This artist's concept illustrates the new view of the Milky Way. The galaxy's two major arms (Scutum-Centaurus and Perseus) can be seen attached to the ends of a thick central bar, while the two now-demoted minor arms (Norma and Sagittarius) are less distinct and located between the major arms. ...

My idea is as follows: A very strong concrete foundation is attached to "Earth" a cable made of some increadably strong material is attached on to a giant powered pully wheel, the capble runs out into space aprox 400 miles ! ... In his novel "Fountains of Paradise" Clarke uses that idea: take a cable 40,000 km long and drop it from the satellite to the spot directly underneath it on the Earth and secure it. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... In spite of the good potential possibilities, some of the station "Dnepr" design characteristics did not allow us to apply the usual special IS radar measurement methods. ... Thus for IS signal measurements at the "Dnepr" station, we have developed special methods for recording and processing IS signals in order to determine plasma ionospheric parameters. ...

... More on 51 Peg: . The discovery of a Jupiter--mass planet in orbit around the solar--type star 51Peg has been reported by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz (Geneva Observatory) on October 6th at the 9th Cambridge workshop on "cool stars, stellar systems, and the sun" held at Florence (Italy). ... Recall that the measurements of radial velocity only yield v sin i which in turn gives us M sin i. For most values of i, sin i will be greater than 0.5 and this gives a mass estimate of 0.5 Jupiter masses. ...

Schools were attached to monasteries and churches to educate clerics who were the civil cervants and the scholars of the time as well as monks, nuns and priests. Education had no direct control by the state, the church had been almost a monopoly of literacy and education .Existed chantry schools for boys from poor families, beating was highly recommended in chantry schools and was an importany part of school and home education ; song ... So in 1902 Balfour's Education Act was established. ...

... This paper presents an algorithm for solving antenna based polarization leakage in a radio interferometer using co-polar observations of unpolarized sources. If ignored, polarization leakage manifests itself as closure errors in parallel hand (co-polar) visibilities. ... Hence, polarization leakage manifests as increased closure errors . ... The closure phase due to polarization mis-matches between phased antennas in a radio interferometer therefore naturally measures the Pancharatnam phase. ...

... In result, we obtained the GA constant. ... So, we use the results of the observations of Galactic ob jects to improve A. Our previous estimate of the GA constant (Malkin 2011) yields the values of R0 = 8.2 kpc, 0 = 29.5 km s-1 kpc-1 , and A = 5.02 µas/yr. ... So, the results published in 2008­2013 were used to derive the final estimate of the GA constant. ... We have applied several statistical techniques mostly used in physics and metrology to these data, as described in Malkin (2012, 2013). ...
