... It turns out one possibility is a form of matter/energy invented by Einstein in the 1920s to make sure his equations of General Relativity did not predict the Expansion of the Universe. Although Einstein was willing to predict several things with his equations of General Relativity, he obviously thought an expanding Universe was too much, and so he invented the Cosmological Constant, which repels itself, and was meant to balance the force of gravity, and make the Universe static. ...

A long Chandra observation of Tycho has revealed a pattern of X-ray "stripes" never seen before in a supernova remnant. The stripes are seen in the high-energy X-rays (blue) that also show the blast wave, a shell of extremely energetic electrons. ... The stripes may provide the first direct evidence that a cosmic event can accelerate particles to energies a hundred times higher than achieved by the most powerful particle accelerator on Earth. ...

... Take the air we breathe: its molecules have energies around 0.03 ev (electron volt--see energetic particles ) as fast as a cannonball, though still quite a bit slower than the typical satellite. ... The Sun's plasma is much hotter , and that of the magnetosphere is still hotter. ... They are known as cosmic rays or cosmic radiation . ... Actually, the source of cosmic rays is probably not quite as intense, because cosmic ray particles can stay around the galaxy much longer than starlight. ...

... In the central equatorial Pacific, the large area of warmer than normal sea surface temperatures (large area outlined in red with a white center) associated with growing El Nino conditions has recently migrated eastward toward the coast of South America. http://physicaplus.org.il/zope/home/en/1105389911/1113511992_en На этой странице есть презентации с конференции, где активно обсуждалась . ...

Not all meteors are sporadic events, the regular meteor showers occur when the Earth bulldozes through a great swarm of meteoroids drifting in orbit round the Sun. ... They are at their best in the pre-dawn hours, as the face of the Earth turning towards the Sun catches more meteors as the Earth moves through space. ...

New England observer Lew Gramer, fresh back from his mid-November fish observing and meteor-catching expedition in South Florida, reports that December also promises to be a great month for celestial sky-sparks!" ... Other showers adding to the mix this month include several very minor showers, such as the Chi Orionids (3 Dec), Monocerotids (9 Dec) and Sigma Hydrids (12 Dec), which usually contribute no more than 2 or 3 meteors per hour during even post-midnight observing this month. ...

... The Earth's magnetosphere is not unique. Space probes which have visited the giant planets--Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune--found that all were magnetized, even more intensely than the Earth, and all were surrounded by radiation belts. ... The earliest evidence came from cosmic rays , discovered in 1912 by Victor Hess. ... In the biggest events, a few times each solar cycle, such ions spread throughout interplanetary space, at energies which can reach those of low-energy cosmic rays. ...

... This photograph shows a little-known cloud of cosmic gas and dust (known as a nebula) called Gum 15. This picture was snapped using a large telescope based in one of the most extreme environments on Earth; a very dry and very remote region of Chile called the Atacama Desert. ... Although all that makes the Atacama Desert sound uninviting it is the ideal location for a telescope. ... The higher a telescope is based, the less atmosphere it has to look through to see the stars. ...
