Was a pleasure to find audience

Parallelism in the earth's surface, Afghanistan, the blades of the helicopters, coated with titanium and nickel generate lighting effects when hitting the sand grains.

PRELUDE On the green sky, / a green star,/What to do, love,/¡ay! ... but lost? The towers cast/with the cold fog,/How are they looking at us/with their windows? Hundred green stars on a green sky,/do not see a hundred towers/white snow. And this fear of mine/to make it alive/I decorate/with red smil...

The star that gave rise to the nebula is now the Vela Pulsar http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IFLtLt_K5Ds/TIokoelDmeI/AAAAAAAADp0/EeyhRxD0zvk/s400/velapulsar_cxo.jpg The name corresponds to the ship of the Argonauts http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IFLtLt_K5Ds/TIooCCPDx_I/AAAAAAAADqM/OAemu_0yR6A/s400/argonautas.j...

Perhaps the light passing through a cluster of galaxies such as Abell, suffer the same distortion. More in http://segunpasanlossiglos.blogspot.com/

I solved the puzzle as my understanding of the flickering in the change of black hole's spin. I do not want to affect the rules. Those interested can view it in Spanish

A quote from Stephen Jay Gould seems appropriate right about now... "A man does not attain the status of Galileo merely because he is persecuted; he must also be right."

Rob

Of course it is as you say

Giuseppe Baretti said that after Galileo's abjuration said the phrase "Eppur si muove"

eppur si muove

As for this being an unscientific discussion, and therefore inappropriate to the Asterisk, I beg to differ. I can see exactly this question being proposed in an Astronomy class, the purpose being to prompt students to go off and find out all sorts of things to either support or reject the proposal....

4.-So, the stars we see formed from dust and / or molecular matter, if they lack hydrogen , may shine like stars for its plasma state, but may not synthesize elements from the duplication of atoms. You're thinking of hydrogen burning in stars. But there are also the processes of helium burning, car...

For a time, from the excellent pictures provided by the new telescopes I have watched the birth of stars and have concluded that I note below. Tentative conclusion that left readers considering accepting any corrections. 1.-The stars should leave a million years to synthesize elements 2.-So I unders...

Transcribe 1. the stars in a cluster are all at about the same distance 2. the stars have approximately the same age 3. the stars have about the same chemical composition 4. the stars have different masses, ranging from about 80-100 solar masses for the most massive stars in very young clusters to l...

In front in the center of the image of my personal collection of stones is possible to observe a meteor.

I see it. But the proper term is meteorite. A meteor is a flash in the sky.

If it is correct on my page in Spanish had placed well, but failed traducción. http://apodando.blogspot.com/

I wonder meteor showers have been used to set dates by the ancients. Known since ancient meteorites attributed to the stones that were thrown the gods have not been marteria of analysis. Only in 1798, when H. Brandes and J. Benzenberg demonstrate the extraterrestrial origin of the meteors. Alejandro...

Complete with information extracted from http://www.oarval.org/perseids.htm One of the most prolific meteor showers is the Perseids. The radiant is in the constellation Perseus, and meteors from this shower can be seen over a period of about 3 weeks centered on August 12. In good years up to 70 mete...

I have had to travel for ten hours in the pampa Argentina accompanied by Crepuscular Rays like the image below Very nice image. But I wouldn't personally call such rays "crepuscular". The term really means "occurring near twilight". Rays coming through clouds are more generally ...

Although difficult to secure, it appears that the peak will become a protostar section where it appears bright, in fact, all the upper sections of the dust are slightly active. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IFLtLt_K5Ds/TGAHucUprxI/AAAAAAAADe0/xJhkBj90McM/s1600/pilar.jpg It's classic aphorism "stard...
