... 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. The definition of when the seasons begin is at the moment of solstice or equinox; that is, winter (in the north) starts on December 22 nd and summer starts on June 22 nd . ... Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...

... Gauging the impact of executing science program across different COS/FUV lifetime positions . ... Changing Programs & Resolving Problems . ... The first such move occurred on 23 July 2012, when the COS FUV spectrum was moved to the COS FUV Lifetime Position 2 (LP2). ... It now appears that the move to COS/FUV Lifetime Position 3 will not occur until early 2015, and so a substantial fraction of Cycle 22 observationsare likely to occur at the COS FUV lifetime position 2, prior to the change. ...

... 2008 July 14 . Changes in Angular Mars . ... As both Earth and Mars orbit the Sun, the apparent angular size of Mars changes as viewed from the Earth. Pictured above from Enschede , Holland , Mars was captured in 2007 and 2008 with 30 separate images, all taken with the same magnification. When Earth and Mars are on opposite sides of the Sun, Mars appears relatively small. ... Since Mars is always more distant from the Sun than the Earth, Mars never shows a crescent phase to Earthlings. ...

Next: The stage and Up: The ESO Red Sky Previous: Artefacts . Fig. 3 shows the distribution of stars. The most striking feature is the rapid steepening of the density gradient towards the Milky Way region at the right and left hand edges of the total field, apparent from the dramatic change in colour in this false colour presentation. Noticable changes in star density across even short distances are indicated by colour changes within individual plates. ... Fig. ...
