... Telescopes . ... Creation of the distributed net of control (DCN) of the 6 m telescope has been completed, which is based on the use of digital tracking drives and the means of commercial automatization to ensure the real-time processes of control and data acquisition. With changing to DCN, computer diagnostics of the majority of units of the telescope has been implemented, the reliability of its operation in the whole has been increased, its performance characteristics have been improved. ...

Isaak Newton (1642 - 1727). ... During 1665 - 1667 Newton made his three main discoveries: the method of fluxings and quadratures (differential and integral calculus, explanation of the light nature and the law of gravitation). ... In 1668 Newton built the first reflecting telescope. The big lens telescope gave indistinct image with painted edges. ... The scientist considered this problem indisolved and suggested a mean against chromatic aberration: a mirror must be used instead of objective lens. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the circular polarization of maser radiation from a turbulent, Keplerian disk that is intended to represent the sub-parsec disk at the nucleus of the galaxy NGC4258. ... This turbulence, along with the Keplerian velocity gradients and the blending of the three hyperfine components to form the 6 16 --5 32 masing transition of water, are key ingredients in determining the appearance of the polarized spectra that are calculated. ...

... We guess it's almost impossible to create the site nowadays where all space relative philatelic materials (postage stamps, stationary, postal marks etc.) would be registered and presented. ... We tried to make such a step in April 2005, placing at the site first images of postage stamps with portraits of astronauts (cosmonauts, spacionauts, taikonauts:). ... All illustrative material (or simply speaking, all scans of stamps) are grouped in four sections: Countries , Years , Astronauts and Flights . ...
