... 2006 March 6 . Unexpected Comet Pojmanski Now Visible . ... Explanation: Have you ever seen a comet? ... Comet Pojmanski , officially designated C/2006 A1 and discovered only in January, now sports a turquoise tail several times longer than the full moon. Comet Pojmanski 's ion tail is due to gas particles expelled by the comet being pushed away from the Sun by the solar wind , the same wind that ionizes gas in the tail causing its blue tint. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

A histogram of the systemic velocities of the brightest HIPASS galaxies is shown in Fig. ... It peaks, as expected, in the interval 800 to 2000 km/s. No bright galaxies were found with systemic velocities of less than -350 or more than 5500 km/s. Figure 2: Histogram of the H I systemic velocities of the brightest galaxies obtained from HIPASS. ...

... In order to disentangle the effects of different climate variables on tree-ring growth rates of different species, and to explore the possibility that more than one species could improve the accuracy of the reconstructions of climate using tree rings, a methodical study of trees in close proximity to the Armagh Observatory climate station was initiated together with Ana Maria Garc?a Su?rez, and continued as part of the latter's PhD thesis with John Butler and Professor Mike Baillie (QUB). ...
