... May 27, 2009 - The CORONAS-PHOTON has registered the formation of the Sun's southern belt of activity . The Russian TESIS/ CORONAS-PHOTON Solar Observatory, which has been working in orbit since January 30th, 2009, has photographed one of the most important events in the build up to the upcoming solar cycle - the formation of our star's new southern belt of activity. The first magnetic fields of the new cycle in the southern hemisphere appeared on the Sun's surface on May 23-24th. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better. The definition of when the seasons begin is at the moment of solstice or equinox; that is, winter (in the north) starts on December 22 nd and summer starts on June 22 nd . ... Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...

Russian SHAREABLE DATA CENTER Institute of Solar-Terrestial Physics SB RAS . ... Since the Irkutsk IS radar is based on station "Dnepr", which was not intended for IS measurements, we made a serios effort to modernize this station in order to carry out ionospheric observations. Four main directions of the development of the radar experimental base: . modernization of the radar receiving system; . development of primary processing and measurement control methods; . ...

Welcome to 1952 project . ... But the opportunities given by this organization have caused the big interest of our pupils. ... I think, the pupils can work in that field of science, which interests them more: chemistry, physics, biology, etc. ... Among other things, I have put the task before the pupils that they should not only describe any discovery or the invention, which, has changed life of people on our planet but also they should manage to analyze the advantages and the lacks of this discovery. ...
