... The author attempts to approach the problem from the positions of systems analysis with account for the ideological grounds and history of space activities in Russia and abroad, comparing its current interpretation with the initial goals posed by leading theoreticians and practitioners who stood at the cradle of the space exploration era. ... The space systems recognized in Russia as priority projects are largely developed with violations of the systems approach principles. ...

During 1665 - 1667 Newton made his three main discoveries: the method of fluxings and quadratures (differential and integral calculus, explanation of the light nature and the law of gravitation). ... In 1668 Newton built the first reflecting telescope. The big lens telescope gave indistinct image with painted edges. ... The scientist considered this problem indisolved and suggested a mean against chromatic aberration: a mirror must be used instead of objective lens. ...

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. ...
