... Bad Astronomy . ... News . ... In the following article, I used the wrong number to get the circumference of the Earth at the latitude of Cape Canaveral, which ironically is what I accuse Ms. vos Savant of as well! ... At the Equator, the Earth spins at 1000 miles per hour (the Earth is 24,000 miles around, and spins once every 24 hours). ... The math is a wee bit hairy, but not too bad, to calculate the circumference of the Earth at Cape Canaveral assuming the Earth is an ellipse with these numbers...

A big advantage of this numerical integrator is its stability: the error in the semi-major axis and the eccentricity depends only on the step size and does not grow with an increasing number of time steps. ... As the integration time increases, the numerical results become more contaminated by various errors. ... A new symplectic integrator produces no secular truncation errors in the actions of a Hamiltonian system. ...

The numbers of three types of compact binaries containing accreting NSs and BHs, which are most interesting from the point of view of their observational appearances, have been calculated as a function of time: i) X-ray transient source containing a NS in an eccentric orbit around a main sequence Be-star (the observed prototype: A0535+26), ii) BH The evolution of the selected types of X-ray binaries during the first 10 million years after the starburst onset is presented in Fig. ...

... There has been a heated public discussion in the past few years about whether our ninth planet is really deserving of the name. Since Pluto orbits a star, and is much less luminous, it certainly satisfies the definition we have above. The problem is actually not with Pluto, but with a very large number of other bodies in our Solar System which also satisfy this definition, but which are not called planets. Perhaps the most notable of these is Ceres, the largest asteroid. ... Planet . ...
