... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy: The North Star, Polaris, is a very bright star. Good Astronomy: Polaris is a middling-bright star, easily missed. ... He said it was close to Polaris, the North Star, but he also said it was in the East. ... It's natural, I suppose, to think that such an important star should be bright, but really, that's a conceit, like thinking that the Earth is at the center of the Universe. If more people knew just why Polaris is the North Star, this Bad Idea would stop. ...

... Ideally, this map contains the energy offset for each pixel (expressed in analog-to-digital units, adu). ... High-energy particles hitting the EPIC pn CCD during the offset map calculation may cause the affected pixels to get offset values which are incorrect by a few adu. ... Due to the specific method of deriving the offset map onboard, the affected areas occur often in blocks of four consecutive pixels along readout direction. ... The affected pixels usually get an offset which is too small. ...

... There are preliminary series of photometric and radio spectral observations of the above-mentioned stars, archival data on the light curves of the stars, results of the search for OH and H 2 O maser emission in IRAS point sources that possess the IR parameters similar to Miras. ... The aim is a detailed study of the maser emission variability. ... In 1996-1997, astronomical observations of Mira Ceti-type stars (miras) were carried out in three spectral ranges: optical, infrared, and radio. ...
