The results of a search for ultrarapid variability of galactic water maser sources at the wavelength 1.35 cm on a timescale of several minutes to 1 h are reported. A special observational technique was developed. ... Among those, several sources that have shown such variability were found. ... Clear evidence for such a variability type was found in at least two sources: W49N and W33B. Variability of this kind displays itself only in certain states of the water masers. ...

... GCR and SCR are primary cosmic rays. 10-15 years after the discovery of cosmic radiation (1919) there emerged two main avenues of investigation in the physics of cosmic rays (CR): 1) nuclear - elucidation of the origin of elementary particles and nuclear interactions; and 2) astrophysical (space physics) - solution of the problem related to the origin and variations (changes in intensity) of CR. ... Besides, the CR flux in interplanetary space is, strictly speaking, not isotropic. ...

... Bad Astronomy . Misconceptions . ... Bad Astronomy : The sky is blue because it reflects light from the oceans. Good astronomy : The sky is blue because it is scattering blue light from the sun. ... So everywhere you look you see blue photons, except directly from the Sun, where you'll see all colors. ... The sky does not look blue near the horizon because more yellow photons (and even orange ones right at sunset) are coming from that direction as they get scattered away from the Sun. ...
