... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 Selenodynamical parameters from analysis of LLR observations of 1970--2001 G. A. Krasinsky Institute of Applied Astronomy, St.Petersburg, Russia LLR observations of 1969--2001 are processsed to estimate a set of parameters of the Earth--Moon system. The dynamical model accounts for effects of elasticity of the lunar body, tidal dissipation in the Moon, and friction coupling between the lunar mantle and its fluid core. ...

... Because the DMR instrument is differential and every pixel is multiply sampled, sky maps are produced by solving a coupled system of linear equations (the normal equations) to minimize a chi-squared. ... This is reflected in the algebraic form of the normal equations matrix, so that, if one were to diagonalize the matrix, one would find a single eigenvector whose eigenvalue was identically zero, and the associated eigenvector, viewed as a sky map, would have a constant value. ...

... He made observations of a supernova (literally: nova= "new star") in 1572 (we now know that a supernova is an exploding star, not a new star). ... Brahe's meticulous observations showed that the supernova did not change positions with respect to the other stars (no parallax). ... This was early evidence against the immutable nature of the heavens, although Brahe did not interpret the absence of parallax for stars correctly, as we discuss below. Brahe made careful observations of a comet in 1577. ...
