... This year's eclipse is unique in duration. ... Although, at the present time, there are 6 solar observatories belonging to leading space agencies in orbit around the Earth, the eclipse of 22 July, 2009, will only be seen by two of them: the Russian CORONAS-PHOTON satellite equipped with TESIS telescopes and Japan's HINODE satellite fitted with an XRT space telescope. ... TESIS will be the first of the two devices (and the very first on Earth) to witness the solar eclipse. ...

... The Moon (1) . ... The monthly cycle of the moon (we won't capitalize the word here) must have mystified early humans--"waxing" from thin crescent ("new moon") to half-moon, then to a "gibbous" moon and a full one, and afterwards "waning" to a crescent again. ... Early astronomers understood the different shapes of the moon, noting that each was linked to a certain relative position between moon and Sun: for instance, full moon always occured when moon and Sun were at opposite ends of the sky. ...

... With enough velocity, a spacecraft can break loose from the Earth's gravity and enter an orbit around the Sun, like that of a planet. If it then orbits the Sun with the same period as the Earth--one year--it may keep a fixed position relative to Earth. ... If the distance is just right--about 4 times the distance to the Moon or 1/100 the distance to the Sun--the spacecraft, too, will need just one year to go around the Sun, and will keep its position between the Sun and the Earth. ...

Having studied the solar corona and its radio emissions sunspot cycles ago, I was keen to verify its existence optically during the total solar eclipse of Wednesday, 4 December 2002, the first on Australian soil since 1976. The moon's shadow was to travel from the south-Atlantic west of The Congo, across southern Africa, the Indian Ocean and into the Great Australian Bight, finally making Australian landfall at Ceduna, South Australia (SA). ... The favoured site to observe the eclipse was Ceduna. ...

In ancient times the solar system was thought to be the whole Universe, so the study of planetary motions was cosmology. ... The planets other than the Moon and Sun generally move West to East through the stars, but occasionally stop and move in the opposite direction ( retrograde motion). In order to explain the retrograde motion of the planets, the geocentric model of the Solar System shown above puts the planets on small circles called epicycles . ...

... The amount of energy encircled by an aperture used for stellar photometry will depend on both the aperture size, and also on any variations in the PSF with field position, time, etc. ... The differences in photometric magnitude between apertures with various radii (i.e. aperture corrections), and their mean and standard deviations for the F555W filter, are presented in Table 5.5 . ... Variations in the PSF with field position will, of course, cause a position dependence in the aperture corrections. ...
