... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy : The Moon appears larger on the horizon than overhead because you are comparing it to foreground objects. Good astronomy : The Moon does appear larger on the horizon, but it is because of the way we perceive the sky. ... The most common misconception is that it is because you are unconsciously comparing the Moon to foreground objects like trees and houses, or even the horizon itself, and that makes the Moon look bigger than when it is all alone in the sky. ...

... Aims: Today, large ground-based instruments, like VISIR on the VLT, providing diffraction-limited (about 0.3 arcsec) images in the mid-infrared where strong PAH features appear enable us to see the flaring structure of the disks around Herbig Ae stars. Although great progress has been made in modelling the disk with radiative transfer models able to reproduce the spectral energy distribution (SED) of Herbig Ae stars, the constraints brought by images have not been yet fully exploited. ...

... Line radiative transfer in C 18 O, HCO + , and CS lines is considered in a spherically symmetric chemo-dynamical model of a starless core, evolution of which is driven by the ambipolar diffusion. Theoretical line profiles are compared to observational data on the well-known L1544 core, which is one of possible candidates for collapsing protostellar clouds. ... Comparison between modelled and observed spectra suggests that L1544 has flattened structure and is observed at some inclination. ...

. Comment on J1842+7946 . Comparing the brightnesses of the two main features seen in our 5 GHz image with higher frequency VLBI images available in the literature (at 8.4 GHz from the USNO database and at 15 GHz by Kellermann et al. (1998)), one can conclude that the NW component has a steeper spectrum since the SE one becomes relatively stronger as the observing frequency increases. VLBApls home page .
