... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 The Lyapunov spectra in spin--orbit dynamics V. V. Kouprianov, I. I. Shevchenko Pulkovo Observatory, St. Petersburg, Russia We study the problem of the chaotic rotation of a minor planetary satellite around its mass center, in the planar and spatial settings. ... The rest of the satellites in our set rotate regularly in synchronous resonance; but, in any case, each of them had passed through the stage of chaotic rotation. ...

The wrong/undefined signs for $\omega_x$ and $\omega_y$ at $t=0$ are not important for what is subsequently needed, i.e. $\omega_x^2 + \omega_y^2$ at $t=0$.) ...

From a bird's eye view of the ecliptic, it is clear that Pluto's orbit is more eccentric than any other planet's. Pluto's orbit appears to intersect Neptune's, and for a period of about 20 years Pluto is slightly closer to the sun than Neptune. ... The libration of Pluto's orbit is due to an exchange of angular momentum with Neptune. When Pluto is "catching up" to Neptune, it gains angular momentum at Neptune's expense. ...

... The Figure shows the parallactic angle in relation to the source position at (RA,DEC), the zenith of the telescope at (LST,AoLatitude), the hour Angle HA, and the azimuth direction AZ (in the picture the source has already transitted). ... Now suppose that a second feed was placed 1 beam width away from the central horn parallel to the azimuth arm. ... Figure 1. shows the parallactic angle rate versus azimuth angle for declinations 8 through 28 (spaced 1 degree steps from Arecibo's latitude). ...

Program: ROTCUR Purpose: ROTCUR derives the kinematical parameters from the observed velocity field by fitting tilted-rings to the velocity field. ... Maximum number of rings is 512. ... VSYS= Give initial estimate(s) of systemic velocity(ies) in km/s. If the number of systemic velocities is less than the number of rings, the last supplied systemic velocity will be used for the rest of the rings. ... SIDE= Which half of the velocity field should be used in the fitting [RECEDING and APPROACHING half]. ...

The movie demonstrates a succession of 7 complete measurement frames of SCA-1 on rotating Interball-1 spacecraft. Diagram, inspired by Salvador Dali's paintings, shows all 64 viewing directions and 15 energy steps as spheres. ... The distribution of spheres along viewing direction is linear unlike logarithmic distribution in reality. ... Complete 3-D distribution is measured for about 10s. Rotation of the spacecraft during one measurement frame is neglected. ...

... Using my little fractal asteroid generator I thought it would be fun to vbuild a hypothtical asteroid and see what kind of rotational lightcurves it would produce.

. This illustration shows the discovery that the outer Milky Way is a really a mixture of two distinct components rotating in opposite directions. The inner component of the Galaxy's halo spins clockwise with the galaxy's rotation at about 50,000 miles per hour. The outer component rotates counterclockwise to the galaxy at 100,000 miles per hour. SDSS-II, Masashi Chiba, Tohoku University, Japan
