Nearly four centuries ago, Galileo's simple observations of Earth's planetary sibling, Venus, buoyed the proponents of a Copernican universe. ... The Italian astronomer had settled into a new house in Florence and had begun to observe Venus, which in November 1610 would have appeared as an evening star, bright in the western sky after dusk. ... From these two observations, Galileo inferred that Venus must orbit closer to the Sun than does Earth. ...

Large sunspots were occasionally seen far in the past without any instruments, when the sun was dimmed by thick haze, but not much was remembered of those observations. ... Sunspot Cycle (1850 - 1975) . One who was greatly influenced by Schwabe's discovery was an English gentleman of independent means, Richard Christopher Carrington , who devoted himself to the study of sunspots. ... Carrington had seen a flare, of the rare variety that is visible in white light (only about 50 are known). ...

But expe­ rience shows that this kind of observations can be used succesfully for improving orientation parameters of star catalogues with respect to dynamical reference system. ... Observations of 90 selected minor planets were used in general solution for their orbital elements, orientation parameters and some parameters of phase re­ duction. ...

Mikhail TAMM (LPTMS, Paris-11 Orsay): "Clover-leaf structures in associating polymers: a toy model for RNA folding . The clover-leaf structures under discussion are defined as follows. The polymer is supposed to bear numerous sticky centers along the chain, these centers being capable of forming thermoreversible bonds with each other. ... Now, we say that some given structure belongs to the clover-leaf type if the archs on the corresponding diagram do not intersect each other. ...

... Between them, the following points are touched: ICRF-2 structure, ICRF Core sources selection, and some expected user's requirements. ... Suggested total number of sources is close to the number of sources already observed in the IVS and VCS sessions, and for most of them reliable positions are derived, mostly for declination > -40 deg. ... So, results of source position time series analysis heavily depend on method used for time series computation and should be used with care. ...
