... Bad Astronomy . ... Mad Science . ... Keep Bad Astronomy close to your heart, and help make me filthy rich. ... I read in your archives that: "The black hole will slowly radiate away?. ... Since this represents energy leaving the black hole, it will slowly release all of its mass in this fashion." ... If a pair of particles is produced which gets its rest mass energy from the gravitational field of the hole, and one particle is lost, then there will be a decrease in the energy of the hole. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the circular polarization of maser radiation from a turbulent, Keplerian disk that is intended to represent the sub-parsec disk at the nucleus of the galaxy NGC4258. ... This turbulence, along with the Keplerian velocity gradients and the blending of the three hyperfine components to form the 6 16 --5 32 masing transition of water, are key ingredients in determining the appearance of the polarized spectra that are calculated. ...

... Satellite data ] . SMIS ] . The program calculates the satellite orbit using ephemeris data in either predict-telegrams (APT predict, TBUS data) or 2-line NORAD format (TLE data). It determines the start and finish times of acquisition session and stores the data for antenna control during the receipt onto the hard disk. The program creates session schedules, supports selection of specific regions for observation and automatic filtration of satellite passes over the selected regions. ...

... The project assumes creation of an international space observatory - the interferometer "Earth - Space - Space" in order to perform of astronomical investigations in millimeter, submillimeter and infrared regions with extremely high sensitivity (to a few nanoJanskies units of flux density in continuum spectrum) and extremely high angular resolution (to a parts of microsecond of arc or, possibly, nanosecond). ... radio-interferometric channels of the system "Space - Space", region 0.2 - 3 mm; . ...

... We guess it's almost impossible to create the site nowadays where all space relative philatelic materials (postage stamps, stationary, postal marks etc.) would be registered and presented. ... We tried to make such a step in April 2005, placing at the site first images of postage stamps with portraits of astronauts (cosmonauts, spacionauts, taikonauts:). ... All illustrative material (or simply speaking, all scans of stamps) are grouped in four sections: Countries , Years , Astronauts and Flights . ...
