... Moon . ... What can astronomers tell us about the different colors on the surface of Jupiter's moon Europa? ... We can use the colors of Europa s surface to tell us about the chemical compounds that make up the surface and subsurface of the jovian moon. Even before the first spacecraft made a close visit to Europa, astronomers on Earth used telescopes to study the moon and were able to use a technique called spectroscopy to determine that Europa s surface is composed mostly of water ice. ...

... In spite of the good potential possibilities, some of the station "Dnepr" design characteristics did not allow us to apply the usual special IS radar measurement methods. ... Thus for IS signal measurements at the "Dnepr" station, we have developed special methods for recording and processing IS signals in order to determine plasma ionospheric parameters. ...

... This is the truly fun part, observing molecular and atomic gas in star-forming regions with a variety of telescopes. Depending on the temperature and density of the gas, different observations are necessary to study the components of star-forming regions. Because stars form in cool gaseous regions, I most often use radio and sub-mm observations, but I also look for opportunities to make complementary observations using infrared and optical telescopes. ...

... The remote area was formed very early, at a time when the Universe was a fifth of its present age and the presence of the galaxy string defies existing models, which can not explain how a string this big could have formed so long ago. ... The simulations tell us that you cannot take the matter in the early Universe and line it up in strings this large," Dr Francis said. ... But in the early Universe, most galaxies had not yet formed, and most dark matter clouds will not yet contain a galaxy. ...

... To run the <LAYER> version of the example, select: flower.htm . ... However, if the page had several layers with absolute positions, and you wanted to place another layer in a relative position to one of the existing layers, you could use inline JavaScript to calculate the value for LEFT or TOP . ... In this example, there is really no need to use inline JavaScript to position the last flower layer, since you could just let the TOP value default to its natural value, as in the other flower layers. ...
