... AstroCC is a coordinate conversion utility for astronomy. It accepts an object designation or the coordinates of an object and calculates coordinates in alternative systems, and at different dates, times, and locations. It also provides lunar and bright planet coordinates to aid in planning observations. ... BJD values may also be retrieved from http://astroutils.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/time/utc2bjd.html which is based on Eastman et al. ... Coordinate data are obtained from SIMBAD. ...

Maxim Tarasenko , a leading Russian space history scholar and a member of Space Policy?s editorial board, who contributed greatly to the elucidation of the Russian space programme in the journal and elsewhere, died in 1999. In order to commemorate his pioneering work in space policy, Elsevier Science has decided to hold an annual competition, open to all law school students and graduate students of space policy, to find the best essay. ...

Comment on J0627-3529 . We have detected the core of an FR-I object and early-type galaxy (Venturi et al. 1995). The core is 0.54 Jy at 2.3 GHz on the Parkes-Tidbinbilla baseline (Morganti et al. 1997) and 0.6 Jy at 5 GHz (VLA data, Ekers et al. (1989) and Morganti, Killeen & Tadhunter (1993)). The VLBA image at 2.3 GHz with the resolution of 15x9 mas shows a "core-jet" structure, with the core brightness of 494 mJy/beam (Venturi et al. ...

On Thursday, February 15th 2001 (and replayed on March 19), the Fox TV network aired a program called ``Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?'', hosted by X-Files actor Mitch Pileggi. ... Dust around the lander . ... However, it appeals to our common sense: when the sky is black here on Earth, we see stars. ... Bad: The program claims that when the top half of the lander took off from the Moon to bring the astronauts back into orbit, there was no flame from the rocket. ...

The direct detection of gravitational waves is one of those events long-expected by physicists that are nevertheless a significant occurrence which excites the world scientific community as if something unexpected has happened. ... Many rumors leaked ahead of the conference, and the fact that something (that is, a signal corresponding to gravitational waves) was discovered by LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) was discussed on the sidelines. ... arXiv:1602.03868 . ...

... Meade Instruments Corporation . ... How to Calculate Power . How to Calculate Power: The magnification, or power, at which a telescope is operating is a function of the focal length of the telescope's main (objective) lens (or primary mirror) and the focal length of the eyepiece employed. ... Example: The Meade DS-2070AT telescope has an objective lens focal length of 700mm; when this telescope is used with a 25mm eyepiece, a power of 700/25 = 28 power (written as "28x") results. ... about meade | ...

... In this case, the main vortex in the Benard cell is decomposed into smaller ones as a result of ten perioddoubling bifurcations. It is shown that the resulting turbulence is coherent and determinate; the fractal character (local selfsimilarity) of its spectrum is found. ... It is shown that the real atmospheric turbulence is the result of mixing of different coherent structures. ...

... Heracles Triplane and Aerospace Systems . The key characteristics of two-stage aerospace systems are determined according to speed and carrying capacity of the aircraft-carrier used . ... So the SPIRAL system hypersonic carrier was expected to launch the second stage by weight 63 tons at a speed corresponding to 6M; whereas launching weight of the MAKS system orbital stage with the use of the An-225 MRIYA heavy subsonic aircraft reaches 275 tons, and the HERACLES aircraft - 450 tons. ...
