... We consider the astrophysical evolution of the Galaxy over large time scales, from early stages (an age of ~10 8 yrs) to the end of traditional stellar evolution (~10 11 yrs). ... In the model considered, the basic stages of Galactic evolution are as follows. ... Essentially all other basic parameters of the Galaxy vary little. ... The final "stellar epoch" in the life of the Galaxy is completed ~10 13 yrs after its formation, when the evolution of the least massive stars comes to an end. ...

The recent telemetry data confirmed that the complex remains pressurised, the thermal mode is normal, the onboard systems perform norminal. Enough electricity is generated to maintain the onboard systems operation and measure orbit parameters. The OC "Mir" onboard systems were checked out, orbit radio monitoring performed. Currently, the OC "Mir" is in free drift. ...

. The station "Clementina". The station "Clementina", launched in January 1994, belonged to the apparatus of a new generation, made on the base of superlight materials. Besides the Moon's relief shooting this station measured the height of relief and thinkness of the Moon crust, the model of the gravitation field and some other parameters. Back .
