Great pointers Dave, that will be easy to find. Perseus is not that hard to see. It is one of the circumpolar constellations, so is pretty much always in the sky, northern hemisphere of course. Has anyone observed a blink of Algol? That is one of those things that I have always wanted to see, but have just never planned a time for it. For those not familiar with it, Algol is an eclipsing binary star system, One of the pair of stars is much...

DisplayAds("Right1"); Since our galaxy and the andromeda galaxy are drifting towards eachother. How long will it take to look as big as the moon today in the night sky?

Published (2008-11-27 01:25:23)
DisplayAds("Right1"); I might already know the answer to this but i just need to make sure. Does a suns mass reflect its volume? I ask because... The formation of a star simply put is: a planet gathers mass there-by gathering gravity there-by igniting and becoming a star
it becomes a star with x amount of mass to start then burns and burns and burns until it looses enough stuff to burn causing an implosion then an explosion(super...

Published (2008-11-27 02:24:31)
DisplayAds("Right1"); hello, I had been looking for a method to predict the position of stars and planets, where I tried to derive a formula to do such predictions I used some simple mathmaticalconcepts... Which is available in the following link; http://www.mathhelpforum.com/math-he...ead.php?t=3410 This method can be used as far as we are concerned with polynomial orbits... What do you think about this method?? thankyou for giving...

The asteroid 2007 WD5 was reported as having a 1 in 75 chance of hitting Mars on January 30, 2008. This was based on observations through December 21, 2007. New observations are in. It's predicted path is getting closer to Mars. The media won't run another story until NASA makes another press release, but the updated numbers from some additional observations are now available. December ...

I have been toying with an SF scenario in which an Earth-like planet has a synchronous moon. Among the consequences are regular eclipses every spring and autumn, poor visibility of the stars on the side facing the moon except during eclipses, and no need for chronometers to determine your longitude on the side facing the moon (and perhaps a great reluctance among sailors to visit the averted side...

Atmospheric distortion causes the light to spread out into its various colors. Bad seeing close to the horizon that night.

Chance are it does, but i wouldnt worry about it. Chances are these whirlpools happen a fair bit its just the first time we have seen one. So i doubt there will be anything different :)
