To Solve Dark Matter Problem Without Dark Matter Chongming Xu Lohrmann Observatory, Dresden, Germany In this paper, we point out the main character of dark matter: invisible and dissipationless (or fully transparent) to be the same as the one of the gravitational eld. There are several alternative gravitational theories to revise general relativity and Newtonian law to explain the rotation curve of the spiral galaxies without dark matter. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better. The definition of when the seasons begin is at the moment of solstice or equinox; that is, winter (in the north) starts on December 22 nd and summer starts on June 22 nd . ... Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...
