... Bad Astronomy . ... Every few months, one of a series of questions comes up on the USENET group sci.astro involving tides, or the rotation of the Moon, or the recession of the Moon from the Earth. ... Why the Moon's rotation period is the same as the length of time it takes to orbit the Earth (same as number 1, but phrased differently). ... But when this happens, the time it takes for the Earth to rotate once will be slowed to exactly the same time it takes for the Moon to go around the Earth once! ...

This diagram illustrates the effects of floating a box ("inner") and how its "sibling" is forced below it due to the 'clear' property. A document window is shown, with 8 lines (numbered 1 to 8), each 24px high. Text before the "inner" box flows on lines 1 and halfway on line 2. The "inner" box has been floated to the right and occupies the second half of lines 3 and 4. ... The lines, as they appear in the image, contain: 1 Beginning of body contents. ...

However to my eye the colour scheme that looks best is what might be described as a `thermal' one, ie one in which cool objects (objects with a long-wavelength excess) are coloured red and hot objects blue, with the intermediate sequence going from red through yellow and white to blue. ... The parameter heat shifts colours along the thermal sequence: at heat = -1 all colours go to red, at +1 they are all blue, with again 0 having no effect. ...
