... There has been a heated public discussion in the past few years about whether our ninth planet is really deserving of the name. Since Pluto orbits a star, and is much less luminous, it certainly satisfies the definition we have above.

... This could be a a/d input problem (the voltage divider resistor is wrong) or a real error with the tiedowns not moving as instructed. foldBack errors occur when the requested torques are above the allowable maximum for a period of time. ... The jack is not able to move at the requested speed because too much torque is required. ... Plotting the motor torque vs tiedown tension showed that td12 needed 4 to 10 times as much torque as the other two tiedowns for the same cable tension. ...

... Re : Need easy way to download whole KHG . ... For now, you can use web mirroring packages to create your own local mirror and read from there. Several such packages are available, and since I don't use any of them, I don't have details like names: can someone else who knows please post details? For the future, it would be nice if someone is interested enough in mirroring to write scripts for the KHG that allow you to read it off-line, but also allow you to respond. ...

... We have measured this "redshift" for the pink black holes, and allowed for it in our calculations. ... We see this effect in the emission from gas around these pink black holes, but it is far too small an effect to account for the pinkness. Thus the swirling motions of gas around or into the black holes cannot produc the colour. ... At first we thought that these things were normal blue black holes hidden behind clouds of interstellar dust, that absorbed the blue light and made them appear pink. ...
