... 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. ...

... Сегодня: 10 апреля 2016 г. [NASA] Американский спутник ACTS был выведен на геостационарную орбиту в 1993 г. Это был экспериментальный спутник, на котором испытывались новые телекоммуникационные технологии, в частности на нем было установлено оборудование для передачи сигнала в Ka-диапазоне длин волн. ... В прошлом году миссия спутника ACTS была закончена, и теперь космическое агентство NASA решило передать его консорциуму из нескольких американских университетов. ...

PENTICTON SOLAR RADIO FLUX VALUES (from SGD Explanation of Data Reports) Daily Solar Flux Values - Penticton -- Daily measurements of the integrated emission from the solar disc at 2800MHz (10.7cm wavelength) have been made by the National Research Council of Canada since 1947. ... The data are tabulated in two forms: the "observed flux" (S), and the "adjusted flux" (Sa). ... The "observed flux" values are useful in ionospheric physics and other terrestrial consequences of solar activity. ...

. Comment on J0431+2037 . A Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) galaxy with complex radio structure on the scale of 10 to 100 mas (combined EVN+MERLIN data at 1.6 GHz, Dallacasa et al. 1995). Our image is consistent with the center-southern features of Dallacasa et al. (1995). The northern feature, ~180 mas N-NW from the field center, outside the boundary of the displayed image, can barely be seen in our data. VLBApls home page . Last modified: 16 Oct 2000
