... О метеоритах . ... Кратко о метеоритах . ... По предложению Д. О. Святского нами была сделана попытка определения космических условий полета Белозерского метеорита 9/XII 1662 г. Из описания следует, что болид появился тотчас после захода Солнца над точкой солнечного заката и оказался над головой наблюдателя в Новой Ерге. ... Метеорит двигался почти перпендикулярно движению Земли, отчего его скорость была умеренной, и благодаря этому он достиг поверхности Земли, не сгорев в атмосфере. ... 1662. ...

... In 1930, Trumpler noticed that linear diameters (LD) of open clusters increase with distance (D) from the Sun. ... Since that time, the interstellar absorption has become one of the best studied factor in astrophysics, and we may hope that current OCL distance scales are free from this LD-D correlation. To verify if this is the case we have chosen several modern OCL distance scales and test them with the same clusters and the same angular diameters that Trumpler had used back in 1930. ...
