... So just reload your Doom files. ... These levels are for all those just looking to squeze more life outa the old Doom. Level 5 is soo perfect for deathmatch, along with the first boss stage level 7. 5 is a humongous overwhelming forest-if you can set up a four player BBS game, MAN you could have fun looming and stalking around in the pitch black shadows. 8 is kinda like a barracks-well, it is, actually. ... But just thought I'd finaly upload the end all Doom levels. ... Doom 1.666. ...

Halo around the Moon. Halo arises when the light beams refracted on the high clouds icy chips ina form of a six side prism. As a result we see a small halo circle with a 22°-radius. The big circle is formed by the beams paased through the side edge and the base of prismochips. Its radius is equal to 46° (nearly). The big circle is observed rarely and is shining weaker but it is easier to observe it near the Sun, if comparing with the small halo invisible in the bright Sun light. ...

... There are two stars in the binary system: a donor star on the right and a black hole on the left (an infinitely small point in the center of a complex figure). ... The wind is ejected as a hollow cone; it has a funnel (the funnel opening angle in the figure) and thick walls (wall opening angle in the figure). The observer looks at the whole system and the supercritical disk from the right, and sees everything up to the wind photosphere (the red color in the figure). ...

... The MROI makes use of optical interferometry, much like COAST . ... As a major collaborator, the Cambridge Astrophysics Group is currently developing some of the mechanisms below, specifically the delay line and the fast tip-tilt system. ... Fringe tracking is used to control the positions of the delay line trolleys to make sure the light beams from the different telescopes in the MROI arrive at the science camera beam combiners in phase so that an interference pattern can be produced. ...
