... were entered in the atlas. ... In so doing lines were selected which yielded radial velocities close to the symbiotic velocity of MWC 560 (+35 km/s). ... The visible spectrum of MWC 560 is poor in absorption lines especially near the brightness maximum. In our atlas are visible only the blue-shifted components of , , NaI and FeII(42), interstellar lines NaI, a few diffuse interstellar bands (DIB) and telluric lines of and and, at length, traces of the spectra of the M giant. ...

... I present results from several seasons of photometric observations of X--ray sources in the Orion OB1a and OB1b star formation regions. The initial goal was to measure the rotational periods of several dozen pre--main sequence (PMS) stars. ... Infrared and optical data confirm that 90% of the X--ray sources are PMS and about 10% of the PMS stars may have disks. ... I find rotation periods for five stars at confidence of greater than 99.9/ greater than 99/ at much lower confidence. ...

... This is not important for drift observations but poses a problem for any observing mode in which the telescope is moving while taking data, since the ALFA beams then will be rotating on the sky. ... The new mode is called ' sky angle tracking ' and is available for all existing observing modes. ... The next figure shows the distance between the beams in declination as a function of hour angle when the telescope is tracking a source with Dec=+10 from rise to set with a sky angle of 19 degrees. ...

... We can help students grasp the significance of Hubble's extremely keen eye, and learn a bit about angles and math in the process, with the following in-class activity. ... Looking through binoculars or telescopes allows us to magnify a small section of the sky.

Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Earth Satellites . ... According to Velikovsky, about 4000 years ago a giant volcano on Jupiter erupted and spewed a vast glob of debris into space, leaving the Great Red Spot behind as a permanent scar. The red hot lump ejected from Jupiter (referred to as a comet by Velikovsky) wandered into the inner Solar System, repeatedly crossing the Earth?s orbit and in fact often passing close to our helpless planet in the following millennia. ...
