... После длительного полета аппарат встретиться с кометой Wirtanen и выйдет на орбиту вокруг нее. На поверхность кометы опуститься посадочный модуль, который проведет научные исследования. В течении круизной фазы, КА выполнит гравитационные маневры, один раз около Марса и два раза около Земли. ... В течении 17 месячной работы в непосредственной близости от ядра кометы, Rosetta будет исследовать поверхность с расстояния 10 - 50 километров, с помощью инструментов дистанционного зондирования. ...

Глава 2. ... Большинство исследователей в области космогонии, хотя и далеко не все, полагает, что Солнечная система возникла 4-5 млрд. лет назад и с тех пор не подвергалась значительным изменениям. ... Увеличение небесных тел . ... Рост небесных тел происходит, во-первых, за счет вычерпывания диффузной материи небесными телами, во-вторых, за счет падений на небесные тела Солнечной системы других, меньших по массе и размерам небесных тел; и в-третьих, за счет конденсации диффузной материи. ...

... Keywords: Proper Motions, Schmidt Plates, Astrometry, Guide Star Catalog, Palomar Sky Survey . In this paper we describe a program of determining proper motions from digitized scans of 1950's-era Palomar Sky Survey (POSS) Schmidt Plates and 1980's-era Palomar Oschin Schmidt `Quick V' plates that were taken for the Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) Guide Star Catalogue. ... Arrows indicate the magnitude and direction of the proper motion for the stars. ...

. Authors . Problem . Method . Advises . Contact Analysis of an accuracy of CCD asteroid observations carried out by professional and amateur astronomers . An accuracy estimation of CCD asteroid observations contained in the Minor Planet Center Database and carried out in the years 1999 - 2006 is realized. About 20 millions individual positions of the Numbered and Unnumbered Minor Planets were tested by means of calculations of (O-C) residuals to derive "mean error of a single observation" for more than 400
