Next: Introduction Up: No Title Previous: No Title . The Giant Silence of the Universe or the absence of ``Space Miracles'' is in an obvious contradiction with the fast evolution of our civilization. The most striking is the fact that both these phenomena, taken separately, are in crying contradiction with ``materialistic common sense'' and are to be considered as real Space Miracle themselves. ...

... The distributions of orbits eccenttricities and of angular momenta for the halo stars and the old disk population are considered. The distributions have gaps separating the halo from the disk and dividing the halo population into three groups. ... Рассмотрены распределения звезд гало и старого населения диска по величине эксцентриситета орбит и угового момента.

We investigate models for main-sequence and horizontal-branch (HB) stars constructed using the Carson opacities and make comparisons with models based on the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... The drop in the hydrogen-shell luminosity due to the helium-core expansion during HB evolution is greater than that obtained with the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... Studies of main-sequence (MS) stars lead to agreement with Stothers' (1974a,b, 1976) results for homogeneous models constructed with Carson opacities. ...

... Massive stars, having 10-150 masses of the Sun, with metallicities Z tens to hundreds times less than that of the Sun (Zo), are the main regulators of the galaxy formation and evolution processes in the early Universe. ... In this galaxy, using the 6 m BTA telescope, a new massive blue variable star with high luminosity (>=10 5 Sun's luminocities in visible light) was found. As far as its properties are concerned, this star falls into an LBV (Luminous Blue Variable) class of stars. ...

... The analysis shows, that asteroid ­ rubble pile loses its fast fragments in no time but the retaining fragments forms a compact structure immersed in dust ­ gas atmosphere, created by interaction of interplanetary medium with dispersed product of collisional evolution of asteroid. By interaction of an asteroid ­ rubble pile with interplanetary medium structures asteroid can increase its brightness on account of blowed up dust simulating phenomenon of distant comet's brightening. ...

Family ASTRO was initially developed to expand the ASP?s flagship program Project ASTRO?, which has partnered thousands of volunteer amateur and professional astronomers around the country with classroom teachers and students in their communities. ... Since then, we?ve trained not only many Project ASTRO partners, but also hundreds of other educators across the country to use our series of Leader Kits and Take-Home Activities to lead fun, hands-on Astronomy Events in their communities. ...

... We consider the astrophysical evolution of the Galaxy over large time scales, from early stages (an age of ~10 8 yrs) to the end of traditional stellar evolution (~10 11 yrs). ... In the model considered, the basic stages of Galactic evolution are as follows. ... Essentially all other basic parameters of the Galaxy vary little. ... The final "stellar epoch" in the life of the Galaxy is completed ~10 13 yrs after its formation, when the evolution of the least massive stars comes to an end. ...

... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 Dynamic evolution of resonance orbits of exoplanets in system 47 Uma B. R. Mushailov, A. A. Kaloshin Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow, Russia The orbits of the major and minor planets of the Solar system indicate that their dynamic evolution is essentially influenced by the effects of orbital reso­ nance interactions. ... One may expect that the orbital resonances can exist not only in the Solar system, but also in other star systems. ...

The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

Close binary systems of the RS CVn and Algol type are characterized by a highly variable radio emission, from typical flux densities of a few mJy during low-activity (quiescent) periods, up to 1 Jy during strong flares. The origin of this radio emission is attributed to the gyrosynchrotron mechanism. Several observations of these stars have shown an evolution of the radio spectrum during both the rising and decay phases of flares. ...

Mira's comet-like tail . Ultraviolet images from NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer show a speeding star that is leaving an enormous trail of "seeds" for new solar systems. The star, named Mira after the Latin word for "wonderful," is shedding material that will be recycled into new stars, planets and possibly even life as it hurls through our galaxy. The Galaxy Evolution Explorer discovered the strange tail during part of its routine survey of the entire sky at ultraviolet wavelengths. ...
