... This paper describes two approaches for user interfaces to the Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) archive. StarView is a custom interface with many interactive features for the serious archive user. An experimental World Wide Web (WWW) interface is also described, which supports some of the basic features of StarView available via standard WWW clients such as NCSA Mosaic. ... StarView is the primary user interface to the HST archive (Williams 1993; Long 1994). ...

... BURNING SKY - Paul Weller (Dear,) How are things in your little world, I hope they're going well and you are too. ... And we'll all bow down to the Burning Sky. Then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise, and together we will live beneath the Burning Sky. THICK AS THIEVES - Paul Weller Times were so tough, but not as tough as they are now. ... But it wasn't enough - and now we've gone and spoiled everything - Now we're no longer as thick as thieves. ...

... Это первое изображение звезды, отличной от Солнца, полученное космическим телескопом. Звезда, называемая Aльфой Ориона (Бетельгейзе), отмечена крестиком на правом изображении зимнего созвездия Ориона (Охотника). На изображении показана огромная ультрафиолетовая атмосфера звезды с таинственным ярким пятном размером в десять раз большим диаметра Земли и имеющем температуру по-крайней мере на 2000 К больше температуры остальной поверхности звезды. ...

... Laboratory and theoretical modelling of the UV bump on the interstellar extinction curve is a very popular topic in dusty investigations. ... feature is illustrated by Fig. 10 where the profiles were calculated using the model of graphite spheres. Figure 10: Normalized extinction efficiencies for graphite spheres. ... The lower panel shows the summary extinction of two graphite spheres with radii and (from upper panel) taken in equal proportions. ...

... 172 ] Briefly, the count rate at the detector from a source at a redshift z is . ... Figure 55 shows the ``Green functions'' for the double compact binary merging rate   evolution assuming no collapse anisotropy. ... Another way that diverse peculiarities in the - distribution induced by the sources evolution could arise is connected with a possible non-monotonic character of the star formation rate in galaxies. ... 22 ] Figure  56 shows two-dimensional cuts through the parameter space. ...

... NGC 1530 is one of the largest barred spiral galaxies in the northern sky, with bright CO emission. ... To trace molecular gas, we observed the line, with the IRAM Interferometer. ... Properties of NGC 1530 and observational results . ... Then in a frame rotating with the potential, the periodic orbits are ellipses either parallel to the bar ( ) or perpendicular ( ), depending on the radius of the orbit. ... We observed the molecular gas in the bar of NGC 1530, a barred SBb spiral in the line. ...

... Operating at a wavelength of 10 ?m, it produces a 135њx135њ image with a resolution of 0.9њ. ... The clouds move from the west-southwest. ... At the same time as the IR images, visible light images were taken with an Apple Computer QuickTake electronic camera. ... At 1540 MDT, the large central cloud is visible in both images. At 1544 MDT, a distinctive cloud is apparent near the center in the visible image and right of center in the IR. The performance of the SDSS cloud scanner is excellent. ...

... Classical nova V2362 Cyg (N Cyg 2006, 21:11:32.34, +44:48:03.9, 2000 [position in ATel 928 is incorrect!] ) undergoes gradual increase of its brightness since middle of August, 2006 from the level of V = 11.9. ... Full width of Halpha line is 5900 km/s, and that one of Hbeta is 5300 km/s. We identified the strongest emission features as CIII+NIII blend centered on 4652A, [OIII]+NII blend on 5010A, NII+[NII] blend on 5708A, NaI+OI blend on 5920A. Absence of HeI lines at 6678 and 7065A is surprising. ...

... Under certain conditions, like those in the nucleus of a QSO, all atoms can be made to emit light at particular wavelengths. ... If that source is approaching the observer, the wave is squashed up onto itself making the wavelength shorter. ... This is redshift. ... You can see how the section of the QSO spectrum which we observe changes with redshift. ... We then see how far we had to slide the observed spectrum along the scale to make it match and that is the objects redshift. ... The 2QZ team . ...

The problem of the rolling disturbance moment is considered arising during the joint work of a lot of liquid propellant rocket engines (LPR Engines). ... The arising of the disturbing moment around the longitudinal axis of the rocket caused by the jets twist during the joint work of all of the rocket engines. ...
