The efficiency of interaction of radiation with a particle and hence its optical properties depend on the particle chemical composition, size, shape, structure, etc. ... Particle size expressed in units of the wavelength of incident radiation, together with chemical composition, most strongly affects the optical properties of a scatterer. ... There are many methods to solve the light-scattering problem for a homogeneous spheroid (our survey of the light-scattering methods see here ). ...

To entertain his young students, and perhaps in preparation for an evening of astronomical observations, Edwin Hubble brought a telescope up to Silver Hills one afternoon and set it up in the circular driveway of John Roberts' home at 1235 Main Street Hill Road. This photo was taken by Jack Roberts late in the day, with Hubble facing directly into the west. ... This is the earliest photograph in existence showing Hubble with a telescope.

Before you continue reading, you should know that this was not always the case, i.e. the Moon once was rotating with respect to the Earth, so that on every night a terrestrial observer (if there was one, because this was long, long before mankind appeared on our planet, and even before any major animals had appeared) saw another face of the Moon. ...

Evidently, we can distinguish two processes: distant interactions, where there is no direct contact between separate fragments, and close contact interactions, where the fragments collide with one another. ... Such a rubble pile with a dust atmosphere differs from a cometary nucleus only in the absence of a volatile gas component, which is usually considered the cause of the appearance of cometary dust. ...

Prague, August 16, 2006 . The main GCVS problem is that it is no longer a GENERAL catalogue of variable stars (in fact, it even never was). The GCVS always was a catalogue of galactic variables, with a minor number of extragalactic stars that were included mainly by misunderstandings. ... Recently, many thousands of new variable stars were discovered in automatic survey projects (for example, some 30000 non-GCVS stars solely in the ASAS-3 project). ...
