... 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. ...

Search for the youngest galaxies and the problems of galaxy formation . During 2 last years of work on the search for new galaxies in the phase of first star formation (SF) burst there were carried out spectral observations of 39 blue compact galaxies (BCGs) - candidates to the most metal deficient unevolved galaxies. 23 of them indeed have appeared new metal-poor galaxies with the oxygen abundance (O/H) (as an indicator of chemical evolution) less than 1/10 of the solar value. ...

... Shapley 1: An Annular Planetary Nebula . ... This strange structure is what can result when a normal star runs out of nuclear fuel in its core. At that time, the center condenses into a white dwarf while the outer atmospheric layers are expelled into space and appear as a planetary nebula. ... After a Sun-like star can no longer support fusion in its core, the center condenses into a white dwarf while the outer atmospheric layers are expelled into space and appear as a planetary nebula. ...

... The TRACE images may be used without restrictions in publications of any kind. ... These two images, taken on 18 November 2000 at 15:54UT and 16:11UT, respectively, show such an event: the red circle in the image to the left shows a region where many loops are cooling, with bright loop tops (the intensity scales with the square root of the image to reduce the dynamic range). ...

Our consciousness is a superfluid because the main property of a superfluid is that it seems to know everything in its realm instantly. ... Following my stream of consciousness rather than trying to be coherent, another principal property of superfluids is that particles in superfluids can pass through each other just like boson waves can pass thru each other. ... www.astronomy.net .

... The WF/PC-1 camera heads were decontaminated on February 3, 1992 (day 034), following a long period of continuous cold operation of the WF/PC-1 CCD detectors during which many science observations were obtained. ... However, unlike previous decontaminations, the February 3,1992 procedure caused the re-appearance of the measles contaminant. ...
