... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better.

Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...

For Cycle 9 the Science Program Selection Office (SPSO) has changed the selection process to ensure that HST will continue to perform the best possible science with the best return for the astronomical community.
